where can i get the transcript of this morning's show? Though I saw the whole thing - and thought the President did very well - there's no denying that russert was stacked way left... and he's supposed to be one of the moderates out there.

I didn't mind the Bush interview. But contrast it with Russert's boot licking treatment of Hillary! If he is bold enough to pepper President Bush with vetted charges about his National Guard service why not be as dogged with the Hildebeast about bribes disguised as cattle futures trades, the secret health care task force, covering for Bill on bimbo eruptions (like she really didn't know) etc. But no. When Senator Shrillary appeared on Russert's show he treated her with royal deference. It was disgusting. This is what is meant by "media bias."

Juan, try this:

Russert Day's are numbered. Well Ketchupboy can say it. Peggy Nonan seems to think the Pres. blew it. By the article on the Drudge Report. I like some of her writing but she is not good on TV either.

I felt the President held his own. He was open and sincere, (wasted on the democrats). He gave more than answers, he gave explanations, (wasted on democrats). SO I guess I have to agree with you. He needs to stay away from these creeps.

The President held his own, but he could have been stronger on our need to free Iraq. We now have a foothold in the middle east, where most of the rabid terrorists had once called their own. Hussein was funding terrorism all over the world!

"Peggy Nonan seems to think the Pres. blew it. By the article on the Drudge Report. I like some of her writing but she is not good on TV either."

No she isn't, but Peggy is a supporter of GWB, so look to more positive columns in the future.

"With probable openings on the Supreme Court due to retirements, a Kerry win is frightening. More frightening is Kerry having the UN, or worse...France, determining the future of the USA!"

Kerry in his own way is as dangerous as a terrorist. His voting record is very similar to a Pelosi, oe a Hillary, if not worse!!

I think he needs to stay light until the dems choose a victim.

Rush made a good point on his show this morning. He said Russert conducted the interview as an interrogation of a criminal suspect eg. "Will you testify to this?..... to that?.... blah blah blah, ad nauseum, ad infinitum!

Fair 'nuf.

Maybe, but I think the right has just as many files on various lefties. I think the real explanation is that politicians and other powerful people tend to be disproportionately of the tax-and-spend control freak variety, which is another way of saying that power corrupts.

90% may not be enough.
