Dan Rather on Obama “He couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him the state troopers to flag down the traffic.”



You've all probably got that crazy old uncle who shows up at family gatherings and you just sit around and wait for him to say something to make everybody uncomfortable......that's Dan Rather.... the washed up former liberal moonbat evening news reader.

Rather pulled another one appearing on “The Chris Matthews Show” over the weekend with this statement about Obama.

“He couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him the state troopers to flag down the traffic.”

First of all.....notice how Matthews.....one of Obama's buttboys....tries to talk over him as soon as the words come out of his mouth. Forget context or intentions. If ANYBODY on the right had made that statement they’d be fired.

Forget that Rather doesn’t have a real job to be fired from. Where’s the outrage? Rather got dumped as the CBS Evening News anchor because of reckless statements like that. Under what scenario are Rather’s comments NOT inappropriate?

"Go climb a tree and eat bananas"

Kia ends FC Brussels sponsorship over racist remark
Korean car maker Kia Motors has ended its sponsorship of Belgian first division side FC Brussels over racist remarks allegedly made by the club's president to an African player, a KIA spokesman said.
Kia Motors Belgium said on Friday it had decided to end its sponsorship deal -- which involved 160,000 euros a year and 20 vehicles -- over the remarks. The Asian car also sponsors the Belgian national team.


News reports said Congolese international Matumona Zola ended his contract after FC Brussels president Johan Vermeersch called an emergency meeting with the team on Wednesday and in the meeting he attacked couple of players and when he got to Matumona "Rhoum" Zola he told the player to " go climb trees and eat bananas"
