The Angry Left remembers Tim Russert |
2008-06-14 |
Matthew Yglesias might want to chide his commenters. Ann Althouse Matt writes: "Shocking news that Tim Russert has died of a heart attack at the young age of 58." And his commenters act like jackasses. The second post is by "Dick Cheney": Damn. That was the one non-Fox show where I could control the message. And it's downhill from there: i say good riddance. This push-back sort of restores my faith: Might the D in Frankie D stand for dipshit? You sound like AJ on the last season of the Sopranos. Oh, those last 2 comments were by the same guy! The horrible virulence is back: ... Russert loved life you say? What a sick thing to say when you have read the kind of qualms that have been raised about Russert's moral shortcomings on this thread. ADDED: I see that not long ago, Matt wrote a little article trashing Russert: So Meet the Press thrives, delighting precisely the sort of person who doesn't realize that a hardball is a kind of ball whereas a curveball is a kind of pitch. Stay classy KKKos KKKiddies! |

#2 I see on other blogs that the extreme Lefties [foam at the mouth type] are celebrating Tim's death. Well I liked him as a TV persona but professionally eh...not much.... Tim didn't focus on the critical things I am concerned about. Mercifully I'm only mentioning TWO... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the time that Tim Russert played tough reporter on Meet The Depressed he represented Washington's Elite class pretty well. For all his Tall Talk about the working class Citizens though, [represented in part by his Dad] did Tim Russert ask or tell Washington's Elites and Politicians that the Vast Majority of US CITIZENS wanted illegal Immigration stopped Cold? Did Tim even recognize that American Citizens were UP TO THEIR NECKS with illegal immigration? Did Tim Russert realize that the US Constitutional and the Bill of Rights made the us American Citizen Boss over his buddies, the fucking Elites and demoCrap Pols? Iraq War: While Americans were fighting a WAR, Did Tim Russert cut through all the demoCrap political Fog and expose the *REAL* POTENTIAL DANGER of WMDs existing in Iraq?; Explaining to Americans, by asking smart questions of the Elites and Pols that we couldn't sit back and wait even if we weren't positive about WMDs being in Iraq... Like rolling the dice, HOPING and TRUSTING that Saddam Hussein will make us safe from Anthrax Attack? Was Tim Russert savvy enough to recognize that Islam itself was a huge threat to Western Civilization? ********************************* RIP Tim and God Bless your Family, may they find the Lord's strength and love now in their hour of obvious need.. |
