.....they'll NOT be playing, 'The Saints Go Marching Inn',.....?
DAN'S RATHER BIASED!
TELL THE TRUTH? DAN WOULD RATHER NOT!
FReepers could give you a great song list.
Bye Bye Danny (from Bye Bye Birdie)
Rather singing "Type a letter, Maria"
Peck a Little, Talk a Little (from the Music Man)
Alert the media.
Okay, alert Fox.

What a great idea! Wish I could be there.
Was in the New Orleans for a week in '03 after an Aunt passed. What a great town!
They're all gone now, sleeping peacefully in the family plot in Metairie.
Always thought Jazz Funerals were a great way to go out, but I don't think Dan is going "up there".
Remember what G-Dan once had to say about his nights at cBS:
"Ed Murrow’s ghost is here. I’ve seen him and talked to him on the third floor of this building many times late at night."

DAVID SHAW: RATHER's work 'Shoddy, Slipshod' not LIBERAL..?

Get it on!! Party like it's March 9th, 2005, for the biased-anchor formerly known as Dan Rather..
Have a great time tonight. We'll be whoopin' it up in Phx too!
Here's a couple of songs to help you celebrate:
DANNY BOY
A conservative’s “tribute” to Dan Rather
Upon his retirement, March 9, 2005
Oh, Danny Boy, the mikes, the mikes are silent
As one by one the lights are dimming down.
The time has come for you to leave the anchor desk,
Say your goodbyes, and take that final bow.
Chorus:
The news elite are show’ring you with accolades.
They try to keep from shedding tears of grief,
But there are millions far across the fruited plains
Who must admit we’re not so sad to see you leave.
You’ve covered all the most important world events,
From hurricanes to fighting in Beruit,
But when you tried to trash our current president,
You went too far and meddled with the truth.
Chorus:
So as you slither off into the shadows,
We’ll raise this song, for we want you to know,
We’ve had our fill of liberal lies and scandals;
Oh, Danny Boy, it brings such joy
To see------ you------- go!

BYE, BYE, RATHER
(Tune of Bye-Bye, Blackbird)
Rather, Rather, reading the news each day
Right outside of our doors
Rather, Rather, we are all here to say,
We can’t take any more
All through the years you have hung around;
Now it appears you are homeward bound.
Rather, Rather, we’re gonna’ celebrate
Brighter days are in store!
Chorus:
So pack up all your microphones,
There you are, going home
Bye Bye, Rather!
After all your clever lies,
It should be no surprise,
Bye, Bye, Rather!
Did you really think you could deceive us?
Now it is the time for you to leave us.
Grab your things, there’s the door,
Don’t wanna see your face no more.
Rather, Bye Bye!
Rather, Rather, thought you were very smart
Breaking all of the rules
Rather, Rather, you knew down in your heart,
You’d be playing the fool,
Far to the left you went pandering
And now your “you-know-what”’s in a sling
Rather, Rather, when will you ever learn
That we value the truth? (Chorus)
Rather, Rather, thought you were nearly there,
What a media god!
Rather, Rather, while you were unaware,
Bloggers started to blog.
While you were maintaining your innocence,
Your reputation got up and went.
Rather, Rather, you never had a prayer,
Now you’re out of a job! (Chorus)

Wish I could be there. But I'll send my "not at all fond" wishes to Danny boy, where ever he is pouting.
Take lots of pictures to post later.
Liberal bias in the media is not dead. Peter Jennings is still there. Dan Rather down Jennings next.
