I recall Peter Jennings after the 1994 election with full condescension saying, “America had a temper tantrum”.
Or how about Dan Rather saying objectively: “One more state, we need Florida” during Bush v. Gore.
What's a Peter Jennings?
is he the doofus who used to "hear things?"
Oh, yes...
“Some thoughts on those angry voters. Ask parents of any two-year-old and they can tell you about those temper tantrums: the stomping feet, the rolling eyes, the screaming. It’s clear that the anger controls the child and not the other way around. It’s the job of the parent to teach the child to control the anger and channel it in a positive way. Imagine a nation full of uncontrolled two-year-old rage. The voters had a temper tantrum last week....Parenting and governing don’t have to be dirty words: the nation can’t be run by an angry two-year-old.”

And this just in: Peter Jennings is still dead.
Take that, Chevy Chase.
