postjack Posted June 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 yeah I just heard this as well, heart attack they are saying? that's the word. I am deeply saddened, I expected to grow at least into middle age watching him grill politicians on Meet The Press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aardvark baguette Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 He was my favorite. Regardless of his own political opinions, he dished out the real questions to everyone. Nobody got a free pass, just the way it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody got a free pass, just the way it should be. My name is guzziguy and I approve of this message! Really sorry to hear this. He's one of the few political journalists that I respect.

Knuckledragger Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 In spite of the fact that I tended to shout "Ahh, Timmeh!" at the television when I saw him, I was greatly shocked and saddened when I found out about Russert's passing this afternoon. My heart goes out to his wife and children, who were still in Italy when he died. I'm afraid his shoes will not be easily filled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postjack Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 There is pretty much no one I can think of with the brains, heart, and work ethic necessary to do "Meet The Press" justice. I'm afraid whoever they choose might just piss me off. Maybe Juan Williams, but I'm afraid he's too young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
