Your Moral And Intellectual Superiors

Open the floodgates: But the French Quarter, the original high ground of New Orleans, was not impacted by the floodwaters that overwhelmed the vast majority of the city.

That would be the special, media only, body floating by, French Quarter, not to dissimilar to the sniper infested airport in Bosnia, which apparently is only visited by aspiring presidential candidates.

“When you look out of your hotel window in the French Quarter and watch a man float by face down, when you see bodies that you last saw in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, and swore to yourself that you would never see in your country,”

There is an investigative interviewing premise that true commitment in a story requires the use of the first person singular and the past tense of a verb - i.e., I did. I ran. I dove. I saw.

Funny how a News channel with its legions of diligent fact-checkers wouldn't notice the deviation.

strategic patience: newspeak for "we don't have a ******g clue".

Perhaps, as can be derived from news manufacturing companies, them "journalists" live in another dimension, another world, a separate reality.

Brian "I see dead people' Williams.

Being a serial fabulist/newsreder on the Obama Broadcasting Co. is very stressful work.
So many lies, so little time to keep them in good order.

NOW... the question we have to ask ourselves.
Has this man ever told the truth?

Question: "NOW... the question we have to ask ourselves.
Has this man ever told the truth?"

Answer: No.

There is something inherently creepy about the man.

C'mon people. The man has proven beyond a doubt to be a shameless liar, completely devoid of integrity and dignity and only a complete fool would believe anything that he says. Other than those flaws, he's probably OK.

At the very least, Williams is a serial embellisher.

BSer in the language of the common man.

Commander McBrag on the old Rocky and Bullwinkle show would be proud.

"At the very least, Williams is a serial embellisher"

To report that your helicopter was hit by a number of rockets when, in fact, it was only struck once, is embellishment. To say that you witnessed dozens of bodies floating by when you saw only one is embellishment. Williams went far beyond the boundaries of embellishment and was well into the territory of bold-faced lying.

Has anyone entertained the notion that perhaps Brian Williams is more than just a serial liar, but a psychopath who will do or say anything to further his own career and bring glory on himself?

They aren't all Hannibal Lecters.

The media should do the same diligence on Williams career as they have on every non-leftie ever mentioned in the news, they might find some really ugly details.

But of course, that won't happen as the media usually protects their own.

Apparently he also claimed to have rescued a puppy dog (two puppy dogs at another telling) from a burning building when he was a volunteer fireman. The guy just doesn't quit.
Part of his hurricane Katrina confabulation is that at one point he was in his hotel room curled up in a fetal position. At this stage, it's about the only thing about him I'd believe.

"So what jobs are most attractive to psychopaths? Here’s the list, originally published online by Eric Barker:

1. CEO
2. Lawyer
3. Media (Television/Radio)
4. Salesperson
5. Surgeon
6. Journalist
7. Police officer
8. Clergy person
9. Chef
10. Civil servant"

Check out number 3.And 6.

A guy is driving around the back woods of Georgia and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: Talking Dog For Sale. He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him that the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.

"I hear that you can talk?" he says to the dog.

"Yep," the Lab replies.

After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says "So, what's your story?"

The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping."

"I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running. But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals."

"Then I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

"Ten dollars," the guy says.

"Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?"

"Because he's a bullshitter. He's never been out of the yard."

"I'll buy him anyway," says the man.

The transaction is completed and the fellow goes in back to get his dog. He tells the dog that he has a new master. The dog says, " Do you mind if I take a job?"

The fellow says, "Sure, why not? Do you have any job in mind?"

The dogs says, "I heard there is an opening over at NBC."

I hit the starter and the V-12 cigarette boat roared to life with a ta-pocketa-pocketa-pocketa-pocketa-pocketa as we raced the rising flood...
