but tater head was not a friend to us liberals. He softballed the pukes and held the dems feet to the fire. I know I used to watch until I finally got my fill of his bullshit.

Every time I hear praise for Russert I have to check to make sure I'm not in Bizarro World.

I have no idea where the affectionate nostalgia originates, but Russert was as good a friend as Conservatives could have hoped, a millionaire beltway insider who championed the well-placed and privileged.

when he resides in the same tony suburban neighborhood. Russert always felt he was 'one of them.'

he was literally fawning and loving repug guests, while attacking anyone not on the right.

Beltway drivel. But.........

TYY

If you thought Meet The Press Whore couldn't go any lower--you ain't seen nothin' yet!!!

in order to raise the ratings.

I haven't watched MTP in a long time. The only time I do is when Rachel is on and then I TiVo it so I can fast forward to the section where she is on it.

is the chosen one?? Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!

Is this some sort of parallel universe Twilight Zone riff?

I'll never forget that disgusting spectacle

Integrity is for paupers!

the barrel. Good luck with last place.

to get a job at NBC News. Wonderful!

half the time he was announcing which waterfront restaurants/bars were having hurricane parties as opposed to covering the actual storm.

Yeah, that pretty much set the bar for Luke's career to date.

"he's partying at a stinkin' yacht club!!! we were saying and several friends were texting me.

" I wonder if Luke is going to ask Skip and Biff if this affecting their social plans" was one of favorite texts.

Check out his tweet from the day of the Boston Marathon bombing:

I have no use for chucky toad, but he better not make any major fuckups, because I guarantee you the long term plan in somebody's evil mind is to put baby russert in the job full time.

This is after all, NBC, where nepotism is king.

There are probably others.

it's true.

Why does this image come to mind?

(With apologies to Moe, Larry, and Curly)

Yikes.

It is extremely sad to see what is considered left leaning these days in some circles.

I remember Russert destroying Kerry while praising Bush 43 on a Sunday before the 04 election. I haven't watched a full show since. (Don't like Gregory)

We need actual journalism instead of propaganda blather.

big teen dance party he attended Saturday night.

.... anything useful politically from the Tee Vee? It's just not going to happen.

He became a member of my personal fecal register when the first question he had for Dennis Kucinich was if he saw UFOs.

So AFAIC, the crap doesn't fall far from the crapper!

Never seen a bigger one have you?

I plan on using it from now on.

This has to be one of the FUNNIEST things I've read yet...

"How clueless ARE they?" for $500, Alex

Yeah, right.
And was too left leaning? Yet another WTF!

By whom, the right-wing turds he promoted...Tim was an asshole of the highest order.

n/t

Retired white Republican men?

speechifying on Morning Joe of late. I was wondering if he was going back into politics.

Corporate Sermonette.

...was that the host was too left leaning. As I have stated many times, the problem was not solely with Gregory, it was with the rightwing producers. They chose the guests, they chose the slant...and it was to regurgitate talking points.

They are so trapped in the right wing bubble that they truly thought the show should be more right leaning! Haaahaahaa. That is a crack up.

So they add morning Joe! The biggest rw tool of them all! He will get faxed the talking points every Sunday and spew them ad nauseum.

And the ratings will continue to plummet.

who are glued to fox.

it should hasten the demise of the show.

She'll make things worse and walk away with a giant pile of dough for her troubles.
