Dan Rather: Obama Couldn't Even Sell Watermelons

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Could you imagine the outcry of "racism" if someone like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or any personality on Fox News used the words "Obama," and "watermelon" in the same sentence?

Dan Rather, the former CBS anchor that is now with HDNet, uttered that Obama couldn't even sell watermelons when discussing the president's failure to get health care passed.

Chris Matthews, who was speaking with him when Rather said it, didn't even blink an eyelash over it. . . well, he kind of did, he interrupted Rather to move things along before Dan Rather shoved his foot further down his throat.
