Crooks and Liars:
So many creeps, so little time. The bronze goes to the owners of the Phillips 66 station in Marion, Kansas, who fired their employee who was robbed at gunpoint, because at the time of the robbery there was more than $150 in the till. The problem was that the employee was in the process of transferring $100 to the safe at the time the robber entered the building to rob it.
Those guys are really strict, aren’t they? I bet they charged their employees for the little plastic creamer tubs for their coffee too.
The silver goes to perennial nominee Bill O’Reilly, whose ego is incapable of understanding that this little feud that he has going with Keith Olbermann is only increasing Olbermann’s ratings share. Billo knows better than to point to Olbermann by name, so his has been a campaign of slurs against the parent company of MSNBC, GE. On this program, he tried to tie GE to sales to Iran via a German company that sold software developed by a GE subsidiary. Of course, Bill has neither the integrity or the intellectual honesty to admit that the German company, Draeger, admitted wrongdoing and had nothing at all to do with GE.
And finally, the gold goes to Roger “Jabba the Hut” Ailes, president of FoxNews for the singularly most perplexing entertainment news since Lynn Spears announced she was writing a book on motherhood. Ailes fired production assistant Jennifer Locke for publicly saying “I voted for you in the primary, you’re going to win.”
Wait, Rog, you guys fired a P.A. for publicly endorsing the Republican presidential nominee while in front of your own Fox cameras? I’m missing something. Does this mean you’re now going to fire everyone there?

As the worm turns slowly the Fox News will change position away from the Bush Team as the election moves forward. All reporters are positioning themselves to be insiders to the next President. Yes Tweety, O'Reilly and other attackers are now changing their language to bet a spot. Tim Russert is a poor actor as she is now sucking up to Obama afters years of attacking him.
As they say in baseball it's no over until the Fat lady sings and she hasn't sang yet. After a storm why do we see a rainbow is it a miracle or what? Yes there are more surprises to come in this campaign and Presidential election. Eli Manning was seen to have lost the game until he threw the Hail Mary as I see Hillary doing the same with God's blessings.
Now there is where some ambulance chaser type lawyer could do some good--sue the hell out of the owners of that Phillips 66 station. Make sure to get lifetime mental health benefits included for PTSD for the now ex-employee's face for getting a gun in the face.
Too bad there is no law to prevent someone from being a jack ass.
