    Comment: Russert was just another mouthpiece for the administration and the status quo. If not then he was a willing dupe. You don't get rich telling the hard truth, it's not something people want to buy nor will the government allow you to sell.

    Comment: Since Tim Russert passed away, I haven't watched any political reporting. I don't know where to turn to. Sad.

    Comment: You know just because he died does not make him a saint. Give me a break he was doing a terrible job doing those interviews at the end. Talk abut Bias.

      Comment: No he wasn't. It's telling that nutjobs on both the right and left both think he was biased for the other side. That's a pretty sure indication that he was fair.

    Comment: My favorite to replace Tim Russert is Chris Matthews.

      Comment: Chris is too in love with hearing himself talk.

    Comment:
    Tim Russert will be sorely missed - and I hope Newsweek can do some editing of the obnoxious comments that preceded mine.

    Comment: I am sorry, but Tim Russet had a level of political correctness that prevented him from not only asking the obvious difficult quetions - but in the odd occassion when he did ask - he clearly did not understand the notion of a follow up . Tim represented failed American journalism, which has done so much damage to American Domeracy.

      Comment: You are incorrect. Being fair required him to keep his cool and not use the "gotcha!" attitude of other, less respected journalists.

    Comment: Tim Russert was the patron saint of Hitlery-haters.

    He will grin down there as the Obamanics come marching in.

      Comment: This is just poppycock. Hillary nuts see supposed bias everywhere, which is a good indication there is none.
