No Fool Like an Old Fool
Old fool Walter Cronkite lets us know that he'd still like to be in on the news action:

Cronkite, who now works on documentaries with his son's company, Cronkite Productions, addressed the annual convention of retiree-advocacy group AARP on Thursday. The principal anchorman for "The CBS Evening News" retired in 1981 to spend more time with his grandchildren.

"I would have stayed quite a bit longer ... knowing what I know now, that I would still have plenty of years to grow up with the kids," he said in an interview.

"Not being on the air, that's not important. But I'd like to be in the newsroom helping set the agenda."

And you have quite an agenda, don't you Wally? An illustration from Wally's latest bloviation on Larry King:

KING: And foreign policy's effect on what might have caused 9/11?

CRONKITE: Yes, I think very definitely that foreign policy could have caused what has happened.
...

This is a revolution, in effect, around the world. A revolution is in place today. We are suffering from a revolution of the poor and have-nots against the rich and haves. And that's us.

Last time I looked, it was a bunch of middle class Islamist religious fanatics financed by a Saudi millionaire. But that wouldn't fit in with the "agenda", would it?

By the way Wally, thanks for Vietnam.
