Anybody catch Andy Rooney on 60 Minutes??

[AntiCoup2K4]

Am I crazy, or was he making very cleverly coded references to Junior as a potential dictator???

1. I know

IT WAS AWESOME!!!! I am sure he is going to get lots of mail on that one. :-)

2. That's what I heard...

3. You are correct.

4. We have an earlier thread here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=109&topic_id=3558

and Wonk provided audio also. :-)

5. Bravo!

I saw it, and it was CREEPY. The only glitch was when he referred to George Bush as a "nice guy."

However, I don't really trust "60 Minutes" any more. I stopped being a fan after I watched them interview Bill Gates in a fast food joint just a few blocks from where I live, just after Gates got his butt kicked in court. It was so obvious that Bill Gates had paid for that interview, I wanted to puke.

6. I thought the same thing eom

[VelmaD]

7. I totally missed that...

but I think that's because I was sitting here in stunned amazement over him asserting that any list of the 10 Most Evil men of all time would have Saddam Hussein on it. I mean jeebus h christ. He's a bad man but hardly in the same league with a Hitler or Stalin or some of the real monsters from history.

8. EXACTLY what he was doing! And that's exactly what I've been

thinking today...hoping people don't lose sight of the bigger picture and what has been and is continuing to happen in this country with our own dictators.

He laid it out plain as day......bless him.

9. Curmudgeon morphs into hero -- It's been a slow process

Rooney looks quite good in his new skin.

10. It wasn't that subtle.....

he said people are ignorant and not involved and that dictators take over slowly, a step at a time....

11. That's the way I definitely heard it. n/t
