Yeah, ol' fart Rooney has it pegged. We fundamentalist Christians love Jesus because we're a bunch of ignorant rubes.

What a senile, ignorant, brain-dead old prick.

In addition, "Rooney said he also could not understand how 'men who work with their hands voted for George Bush,' and again attributing the phenomenon to a lack of education." Thanks for the great insight, Rooney. I'm sure you really know what it's like to work with your hands.

How nice of Rooney to point out something that's been obvious to the rest of us for months.

"I think if George Bush said tomorrow, 'I was wrong, I ask for an apology,' I bet the American people would thank him, and they would like him," he said....

We already thanked him (6 million+ votes) and we already like him. Rooney is a senile old coot.

They haven't been exposed to what the world has to offer.'" ...

A typical pseudo elitist statement feigning superior intellect which really hides a well of ignorance.

This is news? The Vichy press loved Hitler. Rooney is at least 20 years past the time he should have retired.

Rooney shares that ideological hostility to Bush, as Barry related how "Rooney also attributed voters' reliance on religion in the recent election to ignorance"...must be nice to be so superior in so many ways that whenever people disagrees with you, the only possible explanation is that they're ignorant - being liberal means never having to say maybe I was wrong......

Rooney may have admitted what we already knew, but he is a religious bigot and has just committed a hate crime with his big mouth. Will he be prosecuted for it?

Christian fundamentalism is a result of 'a lack of education. They haven't been exposed to what the world has to offer.'

Well, find your comforting rationalizations wherever you can, Andy. We'll be taking our country back now, thank you.

Rooney is so out of touch with the American people it's a wonder he still has any fans. He's a typical clueless liberal.

If 59 million people aren't an example of Americans liking Bush what is?

CBS should be the one to apologize. Not only to the president but to the American people.

They reject money-grubbing urban phonies such as you, Mr. Rooney.

Didja ever wonder why, some people, always want to attribute every problem, to a 'lack of education'? And what is that, anyway. I mean, that's a funny word, 'education.' 'Edu' sounds a lot like 'emu', only it doesn't, but it looks a lot like it, especially when I need a new prescription on my glasses...

Sorry, Andy; exit polls do not bear that claim out; Bush won in every category -- across the board in every demographic group; it sounds good, but the numbers prove it just didn't happen.

..."said Christian fundamentalism is a result of 'a lack of education. They haven't been exposed to what the world has to offer.'"

If he is a product of that particular "education," I'll take a pass.

I did not know he was an atheist. Perhaps that accounts for his ill-as-a-snake-all-the-time attitude.

I bet the American people would thank him, and they would like him," he said....

Um, they do!

There are good young people in the news business," he said, praising his fellow commentators Jon Stewart and Al Franken

Does that statement even need a comment?

Rooney's own show, "60 Minutes," was involved in a public and politically charged flap when it unwittingly used false documents in a Dan Rather piece on Bush's National Guard service.

That would come as news to the experts that CBS retained who told them they couldn't be authentic or told them they couldn't confirm they were genuine.

It's pretty amazing to watch the MSM morf into a propaganda machine that Goebbels would be proud of.

I wonder when is the last time these guys have read the Constitution and have they ever read anything the founding fathers have written. They're so clueless.
