As Dan Rather drones through his last full week as CBS anchor, the MRC’s long-memory brigade has assembled a nice summary of his most outrageous and/or humorous quotes for the occasion. Watch him welcome the Republican takeover in 1995: “The new Republican majority in Congress took a big step today on its legislative agenda to demolish or damage government aid programs, many of them designed to help children and the poor.” (And don’t miss Rather’s 1984 bit on how the platform showed Walter Mondale was marching the Democratic party toward the right wing.)
