But will it be Dobbs/Palin or Palin/Dobbs? Posted: 5 days ago by cecilberman
During an interview on WTOP radio in Washington, Dobbs fueled rumors he’s seeking a bid for public office, possibly the highest office in the land, when asked if speculation about an Oval Office bid is “crazy talk.”
“What’s so crazy about that?” Dobbs, 64, replied. “Golly!”
Oh, I hope he runs. We need more comical characters with little or no relevant experience to provide relief from all the too-serious mainstream candidates.

A list of stuff Fox News has/n't apologized for in this year's news.
*Disclaimer: I don't really support MediaMatters. I just happened upon this story, and I know the general "Fox News needs to stop making the news into fiction" story is in many places. This is just the first place I've seen a list of more than the most recent and egregious flaunting of media ethics (ie. Don't make stuff up).*

The plan was to weaken the columns so the roof would come down slowly - about 3 days. But after weakening just one column, the whole thing fell. (AWESOME Video in article)
