14. Isn't it ironic?-- the only time KO may have cheated...
... was when he went thru the line *TWICE* when they were handing out courage and journalistic integrity!

(Oh, all right... and divine loveliness, too! :loveya:)

9. Its great to hear from Frank Rich.....
He's right on target and I hope he'll be on Bill Maher again soon, which by the way starts again this Friday.
I especially liked his take on Wolf B.
What a whimp!

10. Yeah Keef.
The word is definitely getting out, the only television news commentator with ethics and a sense of humor, who reports stories noone else will report in an honest fashion. Keef you rock. Add Frank Rich to the list of other journalists and broadcasters that are talking about the 'Tao of Keef'

oh and of course, whenever his Keefness's name is mentioned it must be followed by copious floataculations.

13. Wow! Great article from Rich!
Super commentary/kudos for our Keith!
And yes, it sure does put Wolf on notice for his so-called interview
of Gannon.

Love the ending: ...the only road back to reality may be to fight fake with fake.

16. Wondered if anybody else caught that reference to a 14 paragraph article
in the ny times KO made at the end of Friday's show. It sent me to nytimes.com where I read Rich's column. I think, however, he may have been referring to the glowing review the Times art critic gave the Gates.

18. Frank Rich made it easy to
read all the gory details of jimmy dale guckert's rise to infamy.

I love the idea of Jon Stewart taking over Dan Rather's anchorman spot..that would be a silver lining.
