Dan Rather, the CBS anchor who is well past his sell-by date, was verging on losing it in the early morning hours of November 3. Ed Bradley had carried out a mathematical calculation that showed that George W. Bush needed only to obtain 15 per cent of Ohio’s absentee and provisional ballots to win the state and the presidency. A visibly upset Rather then came out with one of his famous Danisms--just because a chicken has wings, doesn’t mean it can fly.
In a poignant comment, Bradley defended himself by saying that he wasn’t making the math up--the figures came from Republicans in Ohio. This is what the mainstream media has degenerated into--a journalist forced to admit that he’s reporting something and not making it up.
The Dan just couldn’t bring himself to consider the possibility that George W. Bush could win Ohio and a second term. And when Rather next called upon Bradley, he introduced him as “Ed Bradley who is not a mathematics professor”. Bradley then piped up that he did in fact teach math at one point in his life.

"IF, I repeat, IF, this trend continues--and this race is heating up faster than French fries in Michael Moore's microwave--we here at CBS News are prepared to call the election for Senator John Kerry!"
I just spit out coffee all over the computer screen!!!! You're gonna pay for a new one!!!
"A visibly upset Rather then came out with one of his famous Danisms--just because a chicken has wings, doesn’t mean it can fly."
Just because a Democrat stool-pigeon has a brain, doesn't mean its functioning.
I don't have a clue of what that means
On the other hand, frozen turkeys can become quite the projectile if dropped from a helicoptor. Just ask Les Nesmann. ;)

That, is precious!
He said most of them, and catching them election night was worth the flipping back and forth from FOX...
Is that something he said? No that's from Apocolypse Now! But I honestly have no problem making stuff up about him....
"Danno will be busier than a cat burying a turd on a marble floor trying to salvage whats left of his pathetic career."
Wish I could claim I came up with that. That was a pickoff of a reply to one of my Blatherism posts and I LMAO.
Gotta create an animated gif of that one with a cat trying to bury Danno...
