Me too. At least ole Dan is taking this war seriously and so far, not using it to further his socialist ideas. The minute the first Saddam "tape" was aired after the initial air strike, I turned on Rather immediately to see his reaction. He looked extremely dubious about the identity of the fellow in the Saddam suit reading notes and said, "...if it is, indeed, Saddam." If Rather didn't think so, how can the rest of us?
I saw Rather interviewed on Charlie Rose before the war started but after the Saddam interview, and it seemed that he'd received so much criticsm for interviewing Saddamit that he'd had a sort of epiphanie about where his loyalties actually lie. Let's hope he doesn't revert to kneepad stance on Saddam, and Fidel, for that matter.
