Freeper Buckhead to be honored by Phil Kent, March 9th for "Outing" Dan Rather

Rather party

Atlanta-based author, pundit and media consultant Phil Kent, former president of the Southeastern Legal Foundation, tells this column that he's hosting a party on the evening of March 9 in the Buckhead section of the city to honor popular Internet blogger "Buckhead" — otherwise known as prominent Atlanta lawyer Harry MacDougald.

"Harry is the bathrobe-clad guy — literally — who 'outed' Dan Rather and CBS less than four hours after they broke the phony Bush National Guard papers" story, Mr. Kent says. Mr. Rather, who will relinquish his anchor chair after 24 years next week, is accused by conservative critics of being motivated by politics in developing the now infamous — and discredited — segment on President Bush's Guard service.

"We'll be watching Dan Rather's last broadcast," Mr. Kent says of his party, "and I'll present Buckhead a framed certificate for 'going above and beyond his patriotic duty.' "

They should invite Bernard Goldberg, that would put the icing on the cake.

If we don't go to NYC to FReep Rather's last show or retirement party (as a few of us still hope to do), maybe a FReep in DC to remind people of Rather's forgies?

Possibly a FReep of SeeBS' Fake the Nation this Sunday morning? It's the last Fake the Nation before Rather's retirement. Alternately, on Wednesday or Thursday at lunch time? Or at the local SeeBS affiliate (after sending press release to all local network affiliates)?

I hope that Buckhead will give the after action report.

Are other people wearing pajamas welcome to come, and cheer? What's the cost? Where's the location?

Hooray for Buckhead!

I'm taking bets on Rather crying on his final broadcast. I've got $50 that says the tears will be flowing. Any takers? '>)
