Holy crap,

From "Meet the press" to "Meet your maker" sucks to go young like that for sure. There was a gaffe recently where one of Hilary's campaign strategists was being interviewed by Russert, and made mention of Russert's father looking down from heaven...but Russert's dad is still alive. Must be rough on him for sure.

One of the last true journalist, he came across, and was by all accounts, one of those guys you'd love to sit with, have a beer and just listen to him.

After the Boy Scout tragedy earlier this week and then a good guy like this gone, yet the thugs I see in Allentown all the time and Shaun Hannity still breathing, there is no malevolent God.

RIP.

Went to his wake today, since I'm passing through DC.

Sad. The casket looked much smaller than I'd have expected. Still, nice to see so many taking time out to remember him.

Man. I was hoping for more of his sleep deprived/marker fume huffing ramblings with his white board during the next election.

Peace Tim.
