So is Dan Rather not a morning person ?

[moof]

just flipping accross the tube & Yikes! Dan looks really awful.

Has he gone downhill a lot lately or is it too early for his makeup person ?

1. They must have dragged the poor man out of bed.

Not a spring chicken, you know.

2. Dan Rather is the best of the news anchors, I believe

but I cannot imagine that he is at his best at the early hours, so I will tune in and see him for myself. I believe that he tries his best to report the honest, and not puff-piece news, so I tend to cut him a lot of slack when he has been on, during some sort of crisis, and comes up with his Texas witticisms. I think that the stress of having to report so much negative news has taken a toll on him. If you remember, he cried on Letterman after 9/11. This gave him more credence with me, since it made him human and not just a talking head.:shrug:

3. He looks better than I do.

Hell, everybody looks better than I do this early in the morning.

Best damn newscaster on American tv.
