Did anyone notice this morning the amount of time Kaagan/rush spent on

[greenbriar]

how gas wasn't high compared to inflation, foreign costs ect...


RW spinning hard on it@!

[riverwalker]

1. yes and it was bizarre

Kagyn actually said if you paid the same for nose spray it would cost $2300 per gallon. WTF?
WTF does that mean?

[longship]

2. I don't use gasoline to clear my nose a fraction of an ounce at a time

I burn it by the gallon in my automobile.

Vive la difference!

[oasis]

4. Funny she should mention nose spray. Her nose is firmly up Rush's ass.

[Kingofalldems]

3. She got that from Rush

I remember years back pigboy said pretty much the same thing during another gas crisis.

[greenbriar]

5. must be while she is IM oxy during the commercials...

maybe she is using rush for the oxy connection???

or the news connection :ROLF:

[Gman]

6. There is something very wrong with anyone that would defend gas prices

They're just not right some how.

[greenbriar]

7. oh god

I bet the spent 20 minutes on it

pulled prices from every foreign nation and then

added the inflation and said it was only like 29 cents higher per rate of inflation than it was during the 70's


I was screaming at the tv.

IN foreign countries they have higher wages/better health care ect

[greenbriar]

10. although it would be a pain, I hope all truckers in the US

stage a boycott on the SAME DAY!

Say September 11th???

[DeepModem Mom]

8. Totally tacky, but I think Daryn had a recent eye lift -- and her make-up

today somehow made her look like a Kewpie doll. Someone posted gossip here the other day that her relationship with Rush, amazingly, was jeopardizing her anchor job at CNN.

[greenbriar]

9. I wondered how long that would take?

I think it is a bad practice

[leftchick]

11. I just read she was let go from CNN

one can only hope. :eyes:

[greenbriar]

12. hehe

serves her right!

[AnnInLa]

13. She actually IM's him during commercial breaks

Buh Bye, Daryn Kagan (being "let go" by CNN)


the following is a post from www.atrios.blogspot.com



Creepy

I certainly don't think that people should be fired for their personal relationships off the job, no matter who they're with, unless they make doing the job impossible for some reason. Still. this is creepy. Kagan&Limbaugh:


Update: 5:16pm: "I'm a CNNer and I can tell you that when she anchors her show, during commerical breaks, she AOL IM's with Rush from the set," a tipster says. "It's HIGHLY innappropriate, and I, for one, won't be sad to see her leave"

[Doo_Revolution]

14. Is this on Fox News?

I don't even see the gas prices reported on the news anymore, is this a normal policy lately?

[greenbriar]

15. no this was CNN

but I bet rushy oxy boy gets his best gal a job at fox make believe news

[Strelnikov_]

16. More CNN Idiocy. Their 'Fact Check' Segment Around Noon

(following Kagan/different anchor) stressed that gas prices are still below their historic (adjusted) high in 1981. They closed the segment comparing the cost of a dollar of gas with the cost of other items (bottled water, milk, Jack Daniels, etc. On Edit: and yes, nosespray)

The entire tone of the piece was 'what are you complaining about, things have never been so good'.

Must have been the propaganda message of the day.

If they were doing an actual fact check, they would present the FACT that the mid and late 70's price spikes were due to transitory geopolitical problems. What we are facing now is an age of chronic shortage due to geologic (and thermodynamic) constraints.

[greenbriar]

17. thats what I thought as well

must have been the message of the day

gas prices aren't high


my daddy used to say

"don't piss on me and tell me its raining"
