Rather Still Insists Forged Documents Are Real!!! (Has he gone psychotic?)

Has he gone psychotic?

No, he always was, and never has been trustworthy.

[tje]

Well, for Rather, it's a very short trip....

[MindBender26]

Every time I think of Dan Rather now, that little five note organ melody from "Close Encounters" runs through my head.

[Always Right]

"...he said he still did not believe that they were fakes."

Dan has a point. The paper is real. The ink is real. You can touch them. They have mass. How can they be fakes?

[WestTexasWend]

It depends on your definition of "real". Dan's got the same perception-vs-reality problem as Bill Clinton, who didn't think oral sex was sex and didn't think he and Monica were alone.

[Reagan Man]

Bill Kristol said on Fox this morning that Rather's rhetoric sounds like something out of the old Soviet Union. This goes one step further. Captain Dan is living in a world of denial. Agreed, Rather is psychotic and the psychosis is called, liberalism.

[LuckyHat]

I'm Dan Rather and it is impossible that I could ever be wrong! And if I am, then it's not me that needs correcting, it is reality that should bend to my will.

Dan Blather is an altered toad.

LUCY....I'm Home!

I think perchance this is the Lucy he was thinking of. Remembering when CBS had great ratings and a stranglehold on the news but no more.

Oh Danny boy, the pipes the pipes.....

[EQAndyBuzz]

Once again, I believe that there is more to this than meets the eye. The DNC did this for a reason. As inept as we believe them to be, they put Clinton in office, twice. Something is up and it almost seems that they are leading the Pubs down a path. To where I cannot be sure, but they know something which will climax(always knew I could get this word in without referring to sex) with the October suprise.

My bet? Terayzah has a breakdown and Kerry will need to tend to her. HILLARY TO THE GREEN ROOM PLEASE!!

[Frank_Discussion]

"...it is reality that should bend to my will."

That's it! Dan's a 'Potential'.

"There is no Spoon."

[Chummy]

Rather "...said he still did not believe that they were fakes.

"'Do I think they're forged? No,' Rather said...."

Pray tell then for what was he apologizing, in what way was he misled?

[Howlin]

CBS better not get caught in one more lie. If they are...

[DestroytheDemocrats]

"Do I think they're forged? No," Rather said.

Let me see now. If they can't be proved to be authentic it means they are either forgeries or legitimate documents. There is no in between! So if Rather does not think they are forged then by default he personally still believes they are legitimate. He is making a total idiot of himself because he has no other choice except to insist they are real because he must continue to keep the pubic believing that he was duped. Or maybe he is delusional and he really does the documents are legit in which case he needs medication.

[stefeb]

I do believe Dan is following this type of logic:

If the forged documents are genuine forged documents, then they are authentic forged documents, as opposed to forged documents that are not truly forged, but fake forged documents.

So, if they are authentic forged documents, the information contained in them must be true, even if it is false.

CompleteBS needs to go shopping for a nice white coat with buttons in the back for good ole Danny boy.

[Howlin]

For some reason, this man keeps coming to mind:

[N. Theknow]

This just in....the pen is blue!

[ErnBatavia]

can someone do a .gif morphing Rather into William Tager?

Lady Jag is just your expert...she did one at my behest of Michael Moore stuffing his face with twin hot dogs.

[DestroytheDemocrats]

"There is no Spoon."

Funny!

[blackdog]

Usually a corporation of even modest size makes an effort to identify employees with diminished capacity and puts them into some employee assistance program or terminates them before they do something dangerous, like get themselves on the news.
