Maybe I saw a different interview yesterday.

I was appalled when Russert showed figures on the economy the day President Bush took office and compared them to today. He never mentioned the effects on the economy of 9/11, corporate scandals, war in Afghanistan, war in Iraq, etc... Russert instead asks VP Cheney to look at the figures and asks "how can you run for re-election?" (how can you be such a moron Mr. Russet?)

Also, when talking about Iraq, he stated as fact:
1).There was no connection between Iraq and 9/11.
2).He stated as fact that the US was not at all welcomed as liberators.

Isn't it amazing that Timmy can know this as fact. I have read reports contradicting his facts.

Tim Russert suffers from Lingering Camelot Syndrome (LCS), but not as much as Chris Matthews. They are both waiting for a JFK Second Coming.

Did you notice that when Russert talked about previous statements by Cheney about the deficit, the photos of Cheney that accompanied the text of the statements were both of Cheney scowling? Even Cheney commented on MTP's selection of such bad pictures.

Dennis Millers' response during his interview was great on how it is to be a ex-liberal:

TAE: You’ve become more conservative over the years. How do you explain this shift?

MILLER: I’m not as sure of my guesswork anymore. To be on the Left, you have to be amazingly certain about things you’re guessing at,

No he didnt. He used some phrase like some say.... Maybe you ought to read a transcript the day after if you are not capable of watching it live without your internal censor causing you trouble.
