My first viewing of CBS News in at least 10 years.>
Me too! I'm so glad I didn't miss it. Courage lol
To: nopardons
Well, even if Rather does show up on 60 Minutes (and I don't think he will) at least he is gone from the netwrok news. Schieffer may be liberal, but he doesn't have the mind-set of a thug.
To: Redleg Duke
Oh shoot! I was tryin to get each of them on this thread! Ping me if you think of them.Cause I am not tired of them yet!

So he couldn't bring himself to mention the misery of the Carter years, huh? Figures. Just as glad I missed it all.

I hold Rather in MORE contempt after watching this special. He is PROUD of what he did. Yuk!I guess I have a pretty good memory... back in the day my family and I always watched Cronkite every night, then Rather. I always knew Danny Boy was very proud of what he did, espcially in making his anti-war views known during Viet Nam and doing his best to assist in bringing Republicans down...

Rather's gone. Gave a totally depressing newscast without mentioning President Bush once, and closed with "Courage."
His special featured footage of attack stories on al the Republican presidents, with nary a mention of Carter or Clinton.
He closed his special by trying to portray himsself as a hard-nosed reporter and failed miserably.
Bottom line: Rather is gone.
To: LiveFreeOrDie2001
YES!
You are right.
I sufferred thru the last 5 minutes of the CA broadcast.
Like a curtain call.... "hurry everybody, clap for Dan."
Well worth it!

I see your point,
but still hope both men ignore him.
He's not going away entirely.
He can still inflict damage.

The whole thing is absolute BS! Picture Dan Rather falling backwards on his ass, arms flailing in all directions as he takes his last shots at Republicans and Conservatives.

The Rather Rap, I love it!
