Did anyone catch Andy Rooney reading his Freeper email?

Here are some excerpts from a few of the nasty letters:

"After watching your segment on 60 Minutes Sunday, I was reminded of what a trashy liberal you are.”
--Jonathan Hendrick, Portland, Ore.

"Please forgive me for not writing to you all the times you were absolutely right on a point...I must now point out how terribly wrong you were..."
--Thomas Steinke, Indianapolis, Ind.

"I am so angry I could spit!!!"
--Susie Baker, Normal, Ill

"You are some hateful old bastard"
--Ron, Phillipsburg, N.J.

Nice letter from James S. Gardner of Bethesda, Md.:
"You asinine, bottom-dwelling, numb-skulled, low-life, slimy, sickening, gutless, spineless, ignorant, pot-licking, cowardly pathetic little weasel."
Well, thanks, Mr. Gardner, but say what you really think. Do you like me or don't you?

3. I'm happy he did that. Maybe even his own company might

wake up to the fact that propaganda creates these hateful mindsets.

4. the party of hate -- the GOP

When I was a kid I had this friend who had a little dumb dachsund. He could get this dog all fired up and angry, then toss him on me. The dog would then bite me.

He thought it was funny.

These ignorant GOPers remind me of that little dog. They're about as smart.

8. His response to O'Really did put a smile on my face:

Bill O'Reilly said I was too old:
“I THINK ROONEY IS AT THE END OF THE ROAD.”

That wasn’t nice, Bill. I didn’t get old on purpose, it just happened. If you’re lucky, it could happen to you.

Oooh! :D
