Rudy is neither a jerk nor a jackass.
He's a New Yorker. It's way too easy to confuse New Yorkers with jerks, jackasses or lots of other less savory types. Having grown up there it's just automatic for me to avoid those things that so annoy others.
Fuggit aboud it ;^>
(Oh, and he was a damned good prosecutor who took on the mob... successfully)
Was there ANY mention of the Libby trial on MTP? I'm just catching the end of lively discussion by Russert and the panel.
Russert's just TOO gleeful, animated and jovial today ... makes me concerned about the verdict.
The fact that Byron York is there .. someone who's written extensively about the trial and the players (Russert being #1) and if the subject was avoided .... it is TOO cutesy by half.
He did do that. He also shouted down a defendant after trial- not good.
Sorry, correction. He shouted down someone who was contesting her eviction
