I would still rather go hunting with Dick Cheney than take a ride with Ted Kenedy, or go to Ft, Marcy Park with Hillary, or take a plane Bill Clinton sent me on (Brown),or get a blood transfusion from blood sold by Bill Clinton.

Only 100 viewers saw it anyway.

That's not what my husband looks like when he goes hunting! Not even close.

That IS the new bright line, isn't it!!!
"The public's right to know" can no longer be used as an excuse for whatever hateful or harmful leftist propaganda our media want to sell us.

He is dressed more like pee wee herman than any outdoorsman I have ever seen.

I hope his car doesn't break down, it would be very difficult hitch-hiking in that outfit (or at least it would down here).

Yup. Looks more like a gay highway worker than a hunter.

"What he intended as a playful joke was viewed by many as mocking and unprofessional, and understandably so.

How clueless and stuck on stupid do these mollycoddled condescending babies have to take it? They're throwing temper tantrums every day and the country is just sitting back and laughing at their pure spoiled brat idiocy.

They're destroying themselves and they deserve every bit of what they don't get...

GOPJ said it well:

"Who cares what 4th grade antics they're up to?".

They now proudly admit that they are engaged in the "entertainment business using current events as the source".

NBC,FOX and all of the idiots who disrespect their audiences deserve to watch as viewership vanishes as it surely is and will.

None of this "stuff" is funny. We got a war going on...half our govt. leaders and all the MSM supporting our enemy and hating our President and all of us.

Our "Joy" and entertaiment will be watching them "eat it"... and by the Lord's good Grace we will.

That IS the new bright line, isn't it!!!

One of the biggest stories in the world - one that's causing world-wide rioting - and the people don't have the right to see what's causing it? You're right. It's the new bright line.

The cowards can wear hunting outfits, act like stenographers for democrats, or go to high level cocktail parties. It doesn't matter. When push comes to shove, they're cowards. Whatever charm they had, and it wasn't that much, is gone.

The WashPost ombudsman heard from me for using this old hat put-down:
"I got hundreds of e-mails, many prompted by conservative blogs"

I wrote: "You might try to be a little more subtle when you attempt to discredit emailers who express conservative opinions."

The MSM always imply we are mind-numbed robots, taking orders from Rush & Co.

I always assume that the leftist media has no judgement other than, if it's republican it's bad.

Starting at that point, it's not hard to understand their opinions.

If you haven't had a chance, stop by and get a look at NBC's David Gregory's 'blog' where he tries to explain his petulance over the hunting incident.

They seem to be printing most responses. Here's mine (using a 'pen name'):

Guess what, David? It's not about you. I know that you think it is, but it's not.

I was appalled by your tantrum. You acted like a petulant child, damaging yourself and your 'profession'. Your bias and your narcissism could not have been clearer, and its the reason that people are not watching television news any more.

I am part of a large, active group that is thoroughly enjoying the implosion of the old liberal media. All I can say is keep it up, you're exceeding our wildest dreams.

My question is, will MSNBC allow others to see my comments, or will you censor (excuse me, 'edit') me?

Obviously they printed mine, so the rest of you... have at it!

There couldn't be a better picture to reflect the current status of Big Media Dufus Opinion Reporters.

Add a picture of David Gregory with a giant bag of Depends and you've got Big Media at it's best.

Olberman prooves you can be old and gray yet still be a punk. Perhaps he's using MSNBC as an attempt to break into television - the kind with audiences.

Wonder where he got that outfit. Sure was not bought in the section that sells hunting and fishing gear and clothing.

Reminds me of the savant in 'Rainman'. Even look a little like him.

Actually Millbank looks more like an escapee from a county lockup crew, assigned to road trash pick up.

Desperate times for desperate people.

Never saw Dan Rather in a Speedo with mask and snorkel...I guess the MSM can hit a lower bottom.

Sad, but true. Amazing how biased this network has become that it doesn't even recognize this as lacking journalistic integrity.

Dana could redeem himself as objective by appearing on the next show that discusses Clinton, dressed as a cigar... or a sink.
