'He Couldn't Sell Watermelons' — Dan Rather and the MSM Strike Again

The Left is obsessed with finding “racists” under every bed but their own. No need to go into the long history of institutional racism on the part of the Democrat Party and its stalwarts, no need to remind people that Albert Arnold Gore, Sr. — father of Albert Arnold Gore, Jr., and grandfather of Albert Arnold Gore III, the Hillbilly Dynasty! — was one of the Democrat senators who filibustered the Civil Rights Act of 1964 — no need to get into the cozy relationship the Democrat Party has had with the Ku Klux Klan, or its utter dedication to the oppression of black people, usually in the guise of “compassion,” “fairness,” or “tolerance.”

Nope, no need at all. Not when the Left has a stalwart soldier such as the disgraced figure of fun, Dan “Lucy Ramirez” Rather, the cashiered-with-a-fig-leaf former anchorman of the CBS Evening News, unsuccessful litigant and now soon-to-be-former talking head on various low-rated cable shows.

Here he is on the Chris Matthews Show (yes, for some reasons Chris Matthews does not get enough exposure on his low-rated show on MSNBC, so the NBC brass gives him a Sunday show as well). Notice how quickly the leg-tingler-in-chief shuts up Gunga Dan once the word “watermelons” emerges from the “global correspondent’s” mouth:

Can’t let the rubes catch on, can we?

He couldn’t sell watermelons even if you gave him a State Trooper to flag down traffic.

Over to you, ladies and gentlemen.
