I heard the interview. Rather sounded nuts.

[Paul Atreides]

"I did point out the following: That in the summer before Sept. 11, the attorney general, for whatever reason, and I assume rightfully, decided that it wasn't safe for him to ride the airlines. And therefore he laid on - an unprecedented thing to do but let's assume it was necessary - private aircraft to fly him around wherever he went, at, I think, $1,600 an hour."

Funny, Hillary ran up a huge taxpayer-paid tab campaigning. I don't remember Danny Boy whining about that.

[Temple Owl]

There is a good chance that will actually happen, but til then, watching him wrestle with his sanity is pretty darn good.

Please let me know when it happens. I will not watch that clown for any reason.

[kitkat]

Has Rathernot ever considered that if they're out to get Ashcroft, we're ALL SAFER if he doesn't fly on a commercial flight?

[Paul Atreides]

Ashcroft was flying commercial until he received death threats.

I suppose, by the media's thinking, that if there is a rapist in the neighborhood, women should sleep out on the porch.

[Paul Atreides]

What do you expect from the leader of the Vast Kneepad Conspiracy?

[eureka!]

"I look forward to the day when Dan just completely loses it on live television and they have to haul him off in a straightjacket."

LOL. I think that is possible under this administration. W is driving him crazy and the polls are compounding his madness. Dan the Man cannot contain his contempt and will continue to lie, and get caught. Oh, I loathe him and his dishonest ilk....

[Howlin]

I would agree with you on that, except for one thing: it's not why Ashcroft flies on military planes. There were personal threats made against him PRIOR to 9-11.

[Spiff]

Rather whacko, if you ask me.

[Howlin]

Why do liberals always think it's about them?

[Paul Atreides]

Why do liberals always think it's about them?

Name one liberal who has ever done an unselfish act for someone else. That's why.

[sheik yerbouty]

Dan Blather sullied his own reputation.

[Mr. Jeeves]

The attorney general's people have been, you know, he's had some of his publicity agents call around newspapers and try to plant some negative stories.

What's the frequency, Kenneth? Dan Rather may hire publicity agents, but the Attorney General does not! Telling that he uses such a phrase: I guess to him the world consists of Democrat politicians and high-profile journalists, and...other people.

[A Navy Vet]

Warning! Warning! IMPLOSION imminent!

[PoisedWoman]

This is known as a reversal of fortune, Dan. YOU get to sully reputations on air every day of the week, but no one can fight back. Is that it?

[tophat9000]

I think DAN needed to get his tin foil hat out

[D. Miles]

Dan Rather needs to rethink his place in the food chain! He is sufferig from Dementia if he thinks he is important enough for a person like Ashcroft to bother to stoop to a liberal level.

Ashcroft is more concerned with the protection of the American people than the ranting of a demented ,liberal, socialist idiot that has a warped sense of his own importance! I know this as fact, I have known Ashcroft for years, he has stood in the line of fire many times for his believes and he is not about to change his standing position now, to one of sling crap!

[aculeus]

Dan is nuts.

"David?, David Brock? Hi, I'm Dan Rather, your new bunkmate."

And I beleive I've got your frequency."
