Cranky former CBS anchor Dan Rather declined to answer today when asked whether he planned to depose President Bush in the incredibly unlikely event that his $70 million lawsuit goes to trial. The demurral came at a Q&A session in Washington, at the restaurant of his former CBS colleague, Carol Joynt. "From the look in his eye—and he gave me a definite Ratheresque look—I got the impression he will call the president as a witness," Joynt later told the Washington Examiner. "Possibly both of them: 41 and 43."
