Anyone criticizing Russert because the NO guy lost his cool is insane.

Russert is an amazing journalist. He is one of the toughest interviews I have ever seen, he goes after Dems and Republicans alike. The only time he ever went close to over the line was in interviewing David Duke, who was a Nazi. Russert is a fairminded guy who has earned his place on Sundays, it wasn't handed to him by anybody.

Just because he doesn't butter up libs like Fox helps out the Right, doesn't mean he's a bad reporter, he's just fair. As a side note, he worked for Bobby Kennedy and Moynihan, two notable liberals. Don't attack someone unless you know where he truly stands.
