I think Timmy really shock her up. Russert lobbed a few softballs and he let her get away with most of the disgustingly false premises (Iraq intel was totally false, we don't know what we are doing, President Bush is incompetent, etc.), but the few hard questions he asked her, shook her a lot.

What were some of the hard questions?

Well, one of the instances someone mentioned.

Timmy showed her "I have a SCREAM 2" speech from algore. And then he asked Piglosi, point blank, about his statements. She dodged the question saying, "I hadn't seen the speech; I was campaigning". Timmy, a nanosecond later and with a slightly more insistent tone said, "I just showed you the speech, what do you think." She stammered and then said it was, essentially, a "style thing".

He also asked her about her own rhetoric and how the troops might think it is negative for her to call their Commander-in-Chief incompetent and not a leader. Her hands were shaking when she was giving her answer, which was a disgraceful response saying that she was doing "for the troops" and their well-being, she hit on that they didn't get what they needed (materials) in combat because of President Bush's alledged incompetence, bad leadership, and lack of planning by Rumsfeld and crew. It was a repugnant answer.

If Timmy were truly a man of integrity, he would have followed up with a question: "Do you really expect the American people to believe that? You are a disgusting person, Mrs. Speaker...disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself." Alas, he didn't say that.
