In Geraldo Rivera's last show before he "heroicly" heads for the bright lights of the Aghanistan war theater, even he couldn't take Clinton-sychophant Tavis Smiley's ranting about the former President's "legacy", interrupting to punctuate the subject by shaking his head and saying that Clinton was "irrelevant," and even less so than former President Carter.
A "special" guest panel to share old war stories included lone Conservative, FOX's John Gibson; BET's Tavis Smiley; Alan Dershowitz and the young lawyer/commentator Abrams who's first name escapes me from CNBC.
"Highlights" included Dershowitz's claim the five Supreme Court justiced "cheated" Gore with their ruling during the Florida voting debacle; Dershowitz bragging that Clinton could have avoided the testimony that got him in trouble in the first place by a loophole had the Liar-in-Chief only listened to him; Gibson recalling and deriding Clinton's definition of what "is" is; Gibson destroying Smilley assertions that Clinton was a great President; Smiley's incessant kissing of Geraldo's @ss, and Smiley's inane assertion that anyone could have led as well as Bush during the Terrorist and War situation -- he refused to give him one iota of credit.
Subjects covered as I recall: Jon Benet Ramsey; the OJ Trial; the Bush-Gore election dynamics; The terrorism and Afganistan War...
Thankfully Gibson got his shots in and Geraldo surprisingly closed very humbly...
That's what I thought until this last show. I thought he'd do some kind of half-apology; at least say he shouldn't have been so biased, but he continued his snickering and arrogance to the end.
I couldn't stand it... had to turn it off Friday night, but when it re-ran over the weekend, I forced myself to watch, hoping for a last minute change from him.
Now, I don't believe I'll be able to watch him ever again.
Plus he has make sure he keeps his "black" credibility on the BET.
Same here. He absolutely DISGUSTS me!!! The slimiest lump of mammal dung ever to roll out from under a rock.
I saw Douchebag's hideous mug on Fox this morning while flipping channels, and IMMEDIATELY moved on before I barfed up my breakfast.
"Now" that you mention it, "Now" is his favorite lead-in word. O'Donnell's is "clearly"? Can you think of any other idiosyncracies of other news people -- THIS IS A TALENT! Funny -- gonna have to watch for it now. And clearly you do watch too much news ;-)
Geraldo Rivera's a whimp and Clinton is hardly irrelevant...unless perhaps treason is "irrelevant!"
Just once I'd like to hear him go five without mentioning "slavery", "people of color", or "problems in the inner-city." To listen to Tavis Smiley is to believe NO blacks in America are able to A) Make a decent living, 2) Live ANYWHERE ELSE outside five minutes of a ghetto, 3) Believe they are vital Americans and are proud to be American.
Horror fascination crowd. Live reports from Geraldo will be especially popular. The thrill of never knowing when or if the live feed will stop being live.
Which 'forehead' are we talking about? Carville??
