Dan Rather calls O'Bama Osama Bin Laden

[Turbodog]

Did anyone see the clip of NBC interview with Dan Rather? He called the democratic hopeful Osama Bin Laden. Really. I saw it.

I was laughing so hard my sides hurt.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Old Dan is losing it, I'm afraid. :)

The QUOTE:

RATHER: ...with Jesse Jackson, and I realize this is not popular to say with a lot of people, but I have a respect for Jesse Jackson. That he was an important figure in paving the way for an Osama bin Laden to appear.

Comment from a brave newscaster:

I think he meant exactly what he said, and I concur wholeheartedly.


Look for OBL as a principle speaker in Denver!

Don't worry, this was promptly swept under the rug and all but Fox News and Talk Radio have forgotten about it.

"he was an important figure in paving the way for an Osama bin Laden to appear."

I give Bill Clinton and Sandy Burglar a lot of credit for that as well.
