NEW YORK (AP) — Veteran CBS News "Face the Nation" moderator Bob Schieffer announced Wednesday at the Texas journalism school named for him that he'll be retiring this summer.

It's not his first retirement announcement but, at age 78, looks like it has a good chance of sticking. Schieffer was speaking to students at an annual symposium that bears his name at TCU's Schieffer School of Journalism in Fort Worth, his alma mater.

About time. However, I am sure CBS can find another lefty loon to replace him.
