Rather, Like Clinton...have no shame, obviously. Rather should resign, but anyone who would use forged documents, and defend forged documents , has no character, or shame.

Rather destroyed whatever credibility he and his network had over something that were it true, would hardly be considered scandalous. Yes. Clinton got elected after his draft-dodging, and whatever happened in Bush's TANG service, he still has 4 years of commanding the best Armed Forces in the world.
I do not see what was worth this for Rather. I still wonder if he is not being stymied by his and CBS's attorneys, perhaps, with a threat of jail time if he admits to any of this?

Right.
Rather has the same arrogance and lust to retain his power.
He'll not go quietly of his own volition and CBS might be
worried what he "could" spill should they fire him.

I really have no idea what his motivation is. But honestly, I don't think he is well. Mentally that is. I think maybe seeing the damage the swiftees did, especially knowing what his feelings are about that war, put him over the edge.

Hi freeman.
working for men like Castro and Saddam
We know that he has "been a pal" of these two (and probably more lefties).
Has he been as chummy with those such as Margaret Thatcher, other conservatives, or even Tony Blair?

But smoke alarms at CBS were not working This is not quite the complete picture.
The smoke alarms at See B.S. were not working because their batteries had been deliberately removed.

Folks, this is where Pat Buchanan is his best... attacking the enemy, i.e. the left and liberals, not the GOP or fellow Republicans. Exactly. I wish he'd stick to that.
To: Diddley
No, Dan Rather was never chummy with non-progressives. He buttered up to dictators and dissed democratically elected leaders. His whole life's work has been a disgrace in that regard.

Now, we can surely all recognize a publicity stunt. Dan Rather is simply promoting his new book, "Burning down my Glass house." :-)

Rather is gradually coming in for near Biblical retribution for his sins.

Can Buchanan write a single column without Nixonian references?

To: Tom_Busch
I mean, we know there is no evidence that Bush did get favorable treatment, but let's say for a second that he did.Of course, you are right onto what should be the main point here.
George Bush 1968 is not running against John Kerry 1968.
Were there draft-eligible 18-20 year olds in 1968 that were sons of Congressmen or Senators who did NOT get special treatment?
Of course not.
Is there evidence that George W. Bush abused his status, or got something that fate wasn't sending his way?
No, there isn't.
The vote is George Bush 2004 vs. John Kerry 2004-and it isn't even close.

"I gave them a sword, and they ran it right through me," said Richard Nixon.
I'd like Dan to fall on his sword. That's wishful thinking because he's too much of a wimp to inflict that much pain on himself - he'll probably end up eating rat poison.

Worse, CBS appears to have been complicit in a criminal conspiracy to use forged U.S. government documents to bring down a president. I hope this does lead to an official investigation. Someone needs to answer for this abomination.
