Dan Rather, the former CBS anchor who has become a prominent voice against President Donald Trump, is working on a book about patriotism.

Rather’s “What Unites Us” will be published Nov. 7 by Algonquin Books, the publisher told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The book is a collection of essays about topics ranging from civil rights to schools and libraries and what it means to be an American.

Using forged documents to attack a Republican candidate for president. “Reporters” haven’t changed much in 13 years.

I suggest printing the book using Times New Roman font, then run through a copier a few dozen times, for that authentic, Texas Air National Guard feel.

To be a patriot, one must believe in nationhood (with all the privileges and restrictions inherent to a nation). Dan Rather believes in none of those things. He’s an open borders globalist like much of his journalistic peers.

This from a person directly responsible for one of the greatest instances of fake news. No thank you.

As much as I think Rather is a liberal zealot and deserves a lot of criticism, I always have thought that, deep down, he is patriotic. I remember him after 9/11. He was emotional and I think his :true feelings showed through — he loved the country. That doesn’t mean he hasn’t done a million bad things before and since then, but he’s done a couple things over the years that make me think that, in his own way, he’s patriotic.

Wasn’t there a movie about his escapades starring Robert Redford. I couldn’t bring myself to watch it since it couldn’t be trusted to be fair and objective (with Redford).

Anyway, it is making the rounds on the movie channels.
