Sometimes They Get It Right

Hello everyone!

After my post about Bill O'Reilly a few days ago, I thought it would be appropriate to point out that while he is typical of the corporate media, occasionally one of the talking heads on network TV gets it right:



Granted, Olbermann is no Any Goodman, nor even a Jon Stewart, but these days I'll take what I can get.

Heck, even Chris Matthews jumped in on the act:



Here you have a guy who keeps repeating the same right-wing talking points without even knowing the history behind them. This is nothing new, but a TV host calling him on his ignorance is pretty rare these days. I like it!

By the way, I personally discussed Neville Chamberlain and his appeasement in a post right here on Rob Dow's World last November. Wouldn't that make me more qualified to host a radio talk show in the second largest radio market in the country than this chump, Kevin James? I'm just saying...

Here's a Little Known Fact...

Hello everyone!

While doing research for my paper from hell for my class from hell, I came across this photo of noted Hitler appeaser Neville Chamberlain:

Incidentally, I think the guy got a bad rap, and that's part of what my paper is about. Anyway, whenever I'd go back and see the photo, there was something familiar looking about him, but I couldn't quite place it. Then all of a sudden, I figured it out! He must be the long-lost father of noted mailman Clifford C. Clavin:


What do you have to say about that, Cliff?

Cliff: Incidentally, it's a little known fact that the tie was invented in ancient times to be used as a bib, you know, to wipe your chin. Speaking of milk, here's a little known fact: the cow was domesticated by the Mesopotamians. Yeah, that's right, in fact it wasn't originally a milk-bearing animal. Oh no, it was originally used as a guard animal for the Chinese Emperors during the Chung King dynasty.

Thank you, Cliff, for interrupting my tedious research of useless information with some truly useful info.
