Why Rush Limbaugh thinks Tim Russert is a good and fair guy is waaaaaay beyond me. He is a Democrat HACK.

AFAIC, the less time Congress has to discuss anything the better. We're better of with them doing nothing.

BTW, doesn't today mark the start of the 'blackout' of advertising according to McCain-Feingold's CFR, with respect to the November 7th elections?

The news creates a terrible bind for Democrats, forced to agree with the president on an element of the war on terror. The depth of the Dems' dilemman was evidenced by a clip Today played of Nancy Pelosi having to admit, if grudgingly, that she was "very pleased" by the news of the transfer and impending trials.

Tell me this wasn't a brillant move...

I walked through the kitchen this AM as Mrs. Pharmboy had Tim and Matt on and I heard a bit of it. As I passed by, I said to the beautiful Mrs. P: "How can you listen to these democrat operatives masquerading as newspeople?"

I think she likes the fluffier stuff.

But, thanks for posting.

I don't think that Rush has much respect for Russert anymore; he refers to him as "Dim Russert" on his show. I think that Russert has really hurt himself over the past with his outrageous bias.

Matt invited us to hum along with those poor Dems, put in the terrible position of doing something right on terror: "So put yourself in the position of a Democratic lawmaker today, Tim [and gosh knows that shouldn't be too hard for the former senior aide to Tip O'Neill]. If that woman or that man stands up and says I am opposed to this, I don't want to discuss this, I want more time, they're going to be seen or painted by the administration and Republicans as weak on national security."

Mea culpa: Russert was senior aide to Mario Cuomo, not Tip O'Neill. I've asked the moderator to correct my error.

I just saw a news clip of Chuckie Schummer on Fox & Friends of him saying .. All the President had to do was ask us to give him these powers and we would have been more them happy to work with him and give him the tools he needed

I suspect this telethon they had yesterday didn't go over too well. They're angrier than they were yesterday.

Yeah, I sometimes confuse Russert with Matthews, too.
