"CBS has to take Rather off the air for the duration of this campaign if it is to even begin to restore its reputation and credibility. For where President Bush is concerned, Dan Rather has no credibility left". ....Pat Buchanan

[Tom_Busch]

Definitely worth clicking through to read the rest. Pat pulled no punches.

I would like to wish dan rather (his name is not worthy of capitalization) a happy and glorious hiri-kiri. Hopefully it will be on his last 60 minutes broadcast. Maybe he can get walter com-crite to be his second.

Folks, this is where Pat Buchanan is his best... attacking the enemy, i.e. the left and liberals, not the GOP or fellow Republicans.

[sargon]

It's truly alarming to see an (albeit liberal) icon like Dan Rather exhibit such incredible arrogance and such total detachment from fair-minded journalistic reality.

One can only hope that he will awaken to his folly and issue an abject and humble retraction and apology on behalf of himself and CBS.

Right now, it seems like Rather and CBS want to ait until after the election to categorically admit the documents are forgeries.

These opinions on Rather's demise are not just coming from "bloggers", but from numerous respected voices in the mainstream media.

Rather couldn't get a journalism job anywhere in the country at this point.

He'll retire in disgrace from CBS.

[John Lenin]

Pat is a stooge for the left.

Dan Rather has shown greater loyalty to the fraud who put this document together than he's ever shown to his country. He's always been a chum of dictators - Castro and Saddam come to mind - and he's only failing with pro-Kerry propaganda campaign because we live in a free country. I could see him quite comfortable - since he's abiding by this lie - working for men like Castro and Saddam. He's got the right stuff to be their news reader. Truth is relative or situational in his worldview.

This is the ONE time I'd like to see Pat be right.

I seriously doubt CBS will send him packing
or that he will seek an early retirement.

Arrogance and a distain for the common folks,
will keep Rather and CBS glued together... UNLESS
it's proved that Rather had a direct hand in this fraud.

So when does Walter Concrete come out of retirement to save the flag?

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.

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

Dan Ra^ther should be FIRED!!

[Jimmy Valentine]

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

"How art thou fallen from Heaven, O' Lucifer, son of the morning."

"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.

[BunnySlippers]

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.

[ThirstyMan]

Rather thought he had a story that could bring down a president. Instead, he has ravaged the reputation of CBS News and made of himself a cartoon caricature of liberal bias. How could Rather have been so stubborn and blind?

Ha ha! I love that sentence! Heh Dan! btw, thanks for the sword! ha ha! Loving this!

[Malesherbes]

Pat Buchanan is a paleo-conservative. That means, among other things, that he doesn't buy into globaloney, and for that he has taken a lot of heat. Here he has pegged the Rather hoax exactly on the mark.
