MIDI - DANIEL

Danny is doing his Wednesday night show
Off into the sunset all the FReepers are watching him go

That partisan hack...he spent his years pushing his leftist views
It was quite amazing...people thought he was doing news

Danny, your Memogate scandal...is how you're finally nailed
You angered your execs...they suggested you bail
Dan, you are a phony...and so full of your baloney
Danny, wave goodbye...please say "courage," then cry-y-y-y-y

Danny still will not admit they were fake
Even though the whole world knows, he's stubborn and never will break

That partisan hack...he spent his years pushing his leftist views
It was quite amazing...people thought he was doing news

Danny, your Memogate scandal...is how you're finally nailed
You angered your execs...they suggested you bail
Dan, you are a phony...and so full of your baloney
Danny, wave goodbye...please say "courage," then cry-y-y-y-y

Castro has offered the evening news chair
We know that the commies will consider him balanced and fair

That partisan hack...he spent his years pushing his leftist views
It was quite amazing...people thought he was doing news

Darn! And I'll be conveniently busy that evening!!!

*sigh* :)

[doug from upland]

Good cartoon.

[doug from upland]

Crank up the recorder and save it for posterity. I hope he either cries or Bill Tager breaks in and pummels him again.

[Brad’s Gramma]

I don't THINK so! I'm not going to ruin a perfectly good VCR on him!!!

Pfffffffffttttt!!!!!


Although, the crying thing......................

Love the cartoon. I just wrote another song talking about the frequency and will post this cartoon on that thread.

[jrewing]

I'm going to watch, having a Guinness or twelve, and dance the dance of vengeance on the grave of his career.

The Blather is not a guy who gets bogged down by
the truth...How bias is/was he? His obvious disdain
for the Bush family was so apparent and then he
defined Clinton on the O'Reilly factor ..with the
"I didn't think Clinton was a liar"....that alone tells
you all you want to know...unless you want to also
read Bernie Goldberg's book."Bias"... The guy is/was
a disaster his whole career.....Jake

27 Aug 1968 -- TV newsman Dan Rather gets beaten up in front of cameras on the floor of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The reporter was trying to interview a delegate being dragged off the floor when the bruisers turn on him. "He lifted me right off the floor and put me away. I was down, the breath knocked out of me, as the whole group blew on by me... In the CBS control room, they had switched the camera onto me just as I was slugged."
