3 minutes ago WASHINGTON - Tim Russert, who pointedly but politely questioned hundreds of the powerful and influential as moderator of NBC's "Meet the Press," died Friday of an apparent heart attack. The network's Washington bureau chief was 58. ADVERTISEMENT In addition to his weekly program, Russert made periodic appearances on the network's other news shows, was moderator for numerous political debates and wrote two best-selling boooks. NBC interrupted its regular programming to announce Russert's death, and in the ensuing moments, familiar faces such as Tom Brokaw, Andrea Mitchell and Brian Williams took turns mourning his loss. Williams called him "aggressively unfancy." Russert, of Buffalo, N.Y., took the helm of the Sunday news show in December 1991 and turned it into the nation's most widely watched program of its type. His signature trait there was an unrelenting style of questioning that made some politicians reluctant to appear, yet confident that they could claim extra credibility if they survived his grilling intact. He was also a senior vice president at NBC, and this year, Time Magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

It's amazing how many angry and bitter Republicans there are out there right now. As a party, the Republicans have been heading in the wrong direction for quite some time and if you couldn't see that you never were a Republican; despite what the radio pundits would have you believe. The Republican fundamentalists have always been about limiting spending and limiting government size. In the last 8 years there has been more spending and a larger increase in government than there ever has been. Don't hate Obama, hate the way the "conservative" party has played the American public. It is time to leave the past behind and embrace our new President. God bless America.
