Well said,friend! I'm a 30 year old conservative and I loved Russert, because he was the last of the TRUE journalist who asked tough questions! RIP Tim.

If only MSNBC could put the same effort into the presidential election or the War as the put into do nothing Tim's death they would be unstoppable.

They spent over week blabbering about how good Tim was, yet the ignored the News.

OBVIOUSLY YOU DO dumbass you watched it and made a comment. I hope people make the same comment when you die!!!!

I always felt that Tim Russert was a fun-loving regular person behind the professional persona, whenever I watched MTP. The touching memorial service last week & countless tributes from those who knew him well is proof enough that Tim lived his life honestly. God took him because he needed another angel up in Heaven to watch over us! As the Billy Joel song goes, "Only the Good Die Young". Tim, may you rest in peace.

He was a good man, respectful to others, he was wonderful to his friends, his family and lived clean....it's nice that he is getting all these wonderful tributes---he deserves it.

To the people who come on these videos and rip apart someone as lovely as Mr. Russert, it speaks volumes of what kind of idiot you are...you just need attention and it is desperate and sad!
