I heard next March...
Andy Rooney said just after the fake document show aired that Rather would be gone in about six months. He was pretty close to righ.

Downside to this is that the pompous windbag will probably return to Texas, likely to a position created especially for him at that school of lower learning in the Peoples' Republic of Austin.

I wonder if he will take the 8PM CNN slot to go up against Bill O'Reilly. I assume it would be an opinion show. That would be fun to watch - he'll get trounced. At least we'd get to see his true colors when he no longer feels constrained by the demands of "journalistic ethics" over at CBS.

Well, Mr. Rather, I would usually say "Don't let the door hit you in the @ss on the way out." However, for you, I hope the doorknob drives your BVD's so far up your backside that your picking elastic out of your teeth.

I remember when you were a newbie. I don't remember the thread. But other old timer freepers were being rude to you. And you were posting TRUE things, not anything unusual. Glad you stood your ground and stayed!
