Tim Russert should be shot, drawn, quartered, then tarred & feathered
Edited on Sun Sep-25-05 10:41 AM by antifaschits
What he did to that St Bernard Parish commis was unforgiveable.
He has no shame - and he just lost a viewer for good.

(on edit. I mistakenly called him Chris matthews originally. My bad)

10. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
I am so mad at that asshole. And proud of hos the NOLA stood his ground. The one I really fault is the content editor who planned it all. I really want to know that jerk-off's name and address.

9. I said I wasn't going to watch any of the shows today
But then when I heard about Timmy being slam dunked I couldn't resist. It's a shame we have NOTHING to watch on TV in the way of news or truth talking. All the whores will continue to be whores as long as the right wing nuts own it all.Until there is a change in media ownership we are phucked.Even if we get back the White House,Senate and Congress it won't change. Look for scandals out the ass because if there isn't any,they will make them up. Bastards.

14. Yes, the shock and criticism of the BFEE from the "media" after Katrina
Edited on Sun Sep-25-05 10:13 AM by BiggJawn
was just an abberration. Their Corporate Masters have gotten them back under heel now...

"Oh, LOOK! Our Glorious Fuhrer is at Magic Mountain, with his thumb on the pulse of the rescue response!"
:puke:

Oh...What did I say? right now on NPR: "He was totally engaged in the response this time....He's getting a briefing in San Antonio..."
:puke:

Il Douche, Il Papa....

8. I just sent this to Russert at his MTP site:
Dear Meet the Press and Mr. Russert,

Mr. Russert's bullying, Grand Inquistor grilling of AARON BROUSSARD on MTP today was a low point in television history for me.

Maybe if Mr. Russert would get off his duff and get out there to New Orleans and see what it's like to live down there with no services and destruction everywhere he could learn to have some compassion for his fellow Americans in their time of need.

I will not be watching Mr. Russert's MTP again. I had stopped watching when all he did was Push the Republican Agenda and ignored all the information that there were no WMD in Iraq. His constant promotion of Bush and the Republicans was bordering on propaganda.

But, in the last few weeks I did tune back in to MTP, hoping the press had finally awakened after Katrina Disaster.

Sadly there's no hope for the Buffoonish, Boorish Mr. Russert and his producers who insist on his ill informed pomposity.

Sincerely,
XXXXXX

13. Great letter.I was also ticked he said Bill and Hillary Clinton said there
Edited on Sun Sep-25-05 10:13 AM by kikiek
were WMD's. Like that made it all ok. Of course EVERYONE was lied to about it including Congress. That is why it would be an impeachable offense if it wasn't a Repug controlled one. So around and around we go. Just keep spinning it Russert. What an ass.

18. I just caught the tail end of that
after I heard Mrs. tom explode in laughter "boy, this guy's making an ass of russert!". But here's the part that really pisses me off. Just like that ho andrea mitchell on Maher's show the other night russert made several (admittedly lame) attempts to get Broussard to say that there was failure at all levels (feds state and local). It's like they.ve finally accepted that bush and his admin have screwed the pooch big time but are trying to raionalize it by pointing out that others failed also. It sounds more hollow every day, like they are trying to convince themselves that their boy isn't fubar.

19. And after all that, we need to string him up by his toenails.
Fat Timmy was unbelievable this morning. And Mr. Broussard handed him his ass on a silver platter.

33. String him up, yes, but not by his toenails.
I'd suggest using something a bit farther 'north', but it seems KKKarl had those cut off of Timmy about five years ago.

23. That's backwards. It should be tarred and feathered FIRST!
And of course Russert has no shame, that's nothing new.

28. Being so angry, I was spooning in speakerisms and messing with time
Shame. a powerful emotion, regulates really poor behavior, prevents the worst of the worst in people who care. Russert doesn't.

34. agreed
Broussard is fantastic--speaks up for the comman man and tells it like it is, a quality SO typically lacking in the media and WH.

29. Here is my letter to them:
Dear Press the Meat:

Why are you spending time trying to fry the president of the LA parrish once again for his heart wrenching story about the woman who died in the nursing home after Hurricane Katrina? I am outraged. He never accused anyone particular level of government of murder. He simply wanted someone to stop wasting time with news conferences and get busy. The bottom line is that the woman died because she was caught in the flood water and no one got to her or her fellow residents. The blame issues were not what he was talking about. The American public get it, Timmy. It is only the media who don't get it.

Your attack on this man today is an abomination. It is so clear that you were told to take the heat off of your benefactors from this man's story.

What I am pleased about is that this man handed you your ass, Timmy. Yeah, maybe he has some issues in his past. Who of us doesn't, Timmy? His basic story is real. Stop trying to attack the locals. They are going through hell. Start asking some real questions about real issues, Timmy. This was never a real issue, was it?

You are a propaganda tool, Timmy. The only reason I watch your show is to find out the White House spin of the week. It is hard work, isn't it Timmy? What are you going to do about access to the White House when Rove is gone, Timmy? Are you going to rely on your laurels? If so, I would give up your day job if I were you.
