Rather's last day.

I found it a bit creepy that Rather ladled all that 9/11 material on his final show. Then, he spoke of "courage," a theme he tied to 9/11, soldiers fighting, and the tsunami victims. He didn't say: and it took courage for me to deal with all my 9/11/war/tsunami-like travails. But there was a disturbingly Nixonesque look on his face that seemed to plead pity me.

UPDATE: I'm not the only one who thought Rather seemed Nixonesque on the way out.

ANOTHER UPDATE: This made me laugh.
