"There Goes Mr. Jordan"...

[guitfiddlist]

He quickly backed off the remarks, explaining that he meant to distinguish between journalists killed because they were in the wrong place where a bomb fell, for example, and those killed because they were shot at by American forces who mistook them for the enemy.

Translation: "These irresponsible bloggers don't have the decency to quote me on what I SHOULD have said, instead of what I DID say. This is a grave threat to the Press Establishment, and our stranglehold on the news-consuming public."

But not to worry, Eason, check with Hitlary for a press liaison position. She could use your highly-developed talent for historical revisionism.

[Ludicrous]

Not even close.

Jeff Gannon = small potatoes

Eason Jordan = big cheese

"I never meant to imply U.S. forces acted with ill intent when U.S. forces accidentally killed journalists, and I apologize to anyone who thought I said or believed otherwise," Jordan said

In other words, "Who are ya gonna believe, me or your lyin eyes?"

Jordan is not the first to poop in his play-pen - wont be the last, either!

[LibFreeOrDie]

"Rather and Jordan are big hits"

Put the letter "s" in front of the last word in that sentence and then you'd be closer to the truth!

[WVNan]

Yeah, and my score was off too as was pointed out to me. How could I have forgotten ole Dan so quickly?

[Judith Anne]

Exactly.

[Lancey Howard]

There Goes Mr. Jordan

[ArmyBratproud]

ha!

[izzatzo]

My thoughts exactly, but I still want to see a tape of his Davos comments so as to see what a liar this guy is.

[Lancey Howard]

Oh man. I scrolled after I posted and saw that you beat me to the (somewhat obscure) movie reference. Good job!

Regards,

HA (lol)...

Here's a link for everyone else:
www.imdb.com/title/tt0033712/

Remade in 1980 (?) as "Heaven Can Wait," starring Warren Beatty and Jack Warden

[JesseJane]

Hehehe.. that's the truth!

[darkmatter]

My tag line says it all. The MSM may hate the pajamahadeen for daring to challenge the "real" journalists of CBS and CNN, but they are starting to fear us.

[dandelion]

This is absolutely amazing. I never thought I'd see the day when we could hold the Old Media accountable, and yet here we are...

A truly remarkable turnover of power is taking place.

[JesseJane]

Time to take out all the trash... If's its one old bag at a time, fine.

[JesseJane]

If they tell the truth, what do they have to fear? Wouldn't it be nice if the answer wasn't, *the party*.

[JesseJane]

If forget the exact quote: Truth seeks the light of day, and will always find it, eventually.

[SandRat]

Another Trophy Rack over the Fireplace Mantle.

"If they tell the truth"

Its just not in their nature to tell the truth. If you spend all of your time believing that there is no real right and wrong in the world (i.e. Abu Graib was the moral equivalent of 9/11) then you have probably stopped believing in truth a long time ago. If they belived in and told the truth they wouldn't be liberals.

If my aunt was man...
