I just saw him hosting a TV show(10/16/2012). He is suffering from some form of nerve damage or condition. He speech is slurred from what appears to be a modest lack of control or strength in his tongue muscles. He has function in both arms but his left arm seemed 'weaker'. These issues can be caused by a host of problems.

It is common for old people to suffer mild strokes. Dan Rather is over 80 and is an admitted cigar smoker. I can find no specific news of Dan's issue.
