Dan Rather go hide in your rat hole. Nobody asked for your two cents.

To hear Rather tell it you’d think the poor NFL bros were in chains having to play in a minor league for a meagre meal of grits and gravy.

He couldn’t have done nearly as much damage as a single member of Congress as he did as a far-left propagandist and liar on network television news.

Said a guy who made his living reading off of a teleprompter. It’s a different game when you have to apply logic.

When vicious Leftards like Dan Blather call for “civility” and “unity” and “patriotism” that is their groupthink code for everyone should shut up and obey the Leftards.

Last I heard he was working at a Kinkos in Texas.

Dan Rather is (perhaps intentionally) missing the point. Standing for the Anthem can be patriotic. Dissent can be patriotic. Neither fact is relevant to whether protesting during the National Anthem is a good idea.

Attempting to convince people to support your position by insulting their Anthem, their flag, their military, their country, and their ancestors is one of the most ineffective strategies imaginable. When a thug delivers a deadly insult, normal people despise the person insulting us, and we make no effort to see things their way. Throw in the detail that they are wrong, and they are destroying the NFL while accomplishing nothing.

History is actually showing what a huge mistake giving women the right to vote was, Dan.

Cap'n Dan isn't talented enough to make it up.

He's simply a simple puppet that's faxed talking points.

Willie Geist asked Rather his take on the NFL protests, and what patriotism means today:

like that enema nozzle knows anything about patriotism today or any other day... miserable wretch
