Former CBS anchorman Dan Rather said "he shed a tear for the country" after President Trump's immigration order began to be enforced on Saturday.
"Today I shed a tear for the country I know and love, the one I believe still beats in the heart of most of its citizens," Rather wrote in a Saturday Facebook post that has since spread widely, eclipsing 110,000 shares and 265,000 likes. "The United States became the most powerful nation in the history of mankind not merely on the basis is its fearsome military, as lethal and well trained as that may be."
"It wasn't solely based on its unprecedented economic engine, as dynamic and far-reaching as that may be America's greatness was forged by a Constitutional compact of grand and universal ideals that the country has tried to live up to ever since," the 85-year-old continued.

No way...he really was crying. Pfft!
Fake but Accurate Tears, no doubt.
These people are frikking nuts. Not dialed in to reality.
Save the tears for yourself, Dan. YOU’RE the one who’s unemployed.
Take the rag away from your face, now ain’t the time for your tears.
Save the tears for yourself, Dan. YOU’RE the one who’s unemployed.
Dan Rather should cry! He and others like him nearly destroyed the United States!
Onward!
I sit and watch as tears go by.
Go away, you vile,disgusting leftist pig
We all shed a tear, every time you talk, you old fart.
No, you political hack. What is "un-American" is your (and your Leftist colleagues aided and abetted by the GOPEs) abject failure to perform your duty -- the federal government's primary responsibility -- to protect the sovereignty (i.e., borders) of the United States. Instead, you (and your Leftist colleagues aided and abetted by the GOPEs) let in millions of illegal aliens, too many of which are criminals and terrorists, and many of which carried diseases which have infected American children.
It is clear that you (and your Leftist colleagues and the GOPEs) have never had any interest or any intention to protect our borders and to protect the well-being of American citizens who trusted you with their votes. You (and your Leftist colleagues and the GOPEs) are a collective disgrace -- not only to each of yourselves and your families, but to America!
Oh Danny Boy, your friends, your friends are calling.
From CBS to NBC and all the other fake news sites.
The audience is gone, and all the ratings falling.
It’s you, It’s you, must leave, must leave without a fight.
Don’t ever come back not even for Rachel Maddow.
Not even if CNN calls you up when your hair is white as snow.
Someone will be here just waiting in the shadow
Waiting for you, just for you with their crossbow.

Didn’t hear from me.
“What’s the frequency, Kenneth?”
Dan is the granddaddy of “fake but accurate.”
I shed my tears on 9-11.
We should allow as many muslims into the US as Saudi Arabia welcomes Christians into Mecca.
Isn’t Dan Rather the proven liar who was fired for being a crook ?
balling and throwing a temper tantrum......I don’t know for sure, pal,,but I think his balling days are WAAAY over. Jes’ saying.
Did you see Shumer crying, the new John Boehner? ROFLOL What a putz! Love it when these radical left wingers wrap themselves in the flag. WAAA! WAA! BOO HOO!
I knew that didn’t look right when I typed it. I meant to say bawling.
