Russert Tribute



It has been so long since my last post rivers have drained in the interim. The last entry showed Tim Russert declaring Senator Obama the winner of the democratic primaries. He was right, but more importantly he was the only figure of the traditional media bold enough to say it. I appreciated that, that night. I respect reason and good judgment, and while T.R. didn't always practice that principle he equally pissed everyone off....

So, as a tribute to the future, and a salute to the past, here are some highlights from his career.
