Obama on Letterman 9/10/08 (full interview)
Authentic, off the cuff, sincere, funny. It's too bad what you have to become in order to reach this level. Man, I like this guy.....but his top ten corporate donors are the same as hildogs and grampy mcsames....what's an American to do....really....wtf is a true American supposed to do? This is a constitutional lawyer who voted for the fisa bill...."Patriot" Act.....welcome to Amerika. Tim Russert might have been the last true journalist....I wonder what he was working on when he had his "heart attack"?
Biden: The Silence is Deafening
>> ^SpeveO:
Somehow I don't think Joe Biden, the man who bragged to Tim Russert about how the Patriot Act mirrored a lot of his proposed legislation in the Omnibus Counter-terrorism Act of 1995, is going to be part of the team that restores the American constitution.
Thanks for pointing that one out, I wasn't aware of it. Count that as a definite strike against him, but his scorecard from the ACLU is 91% in the 110th Congress (only because he missed a single crucial vote, after being named VP), and an 86% rating lifetime.
Obama's position on the Patriot act has been scrutinized, and while his ACLU scorecard shows 82% for FISA and Patriot votes, he's certainly talked a lot about wanting to replace them with better legislation that better protects people's rights (specifics are behind that link).
Contrast that to McCain's rating of 22% lifetime, with a 17% in the 110th Congress, and absolutely no mitigating commentary about it. He's even ducked voting against measures that would've precluded the CIA from using torture, even with his supposed opposition to torture (a minority view in the Republican party, mind you).
Goodness knows what Palin's scorecard would look like.
I'm standing by Obama and Biden being the team to restore the Constitution.

Palin Yanked From Campaign To Learn About Politics n' Stuff.
Apparently they're saying they think they don't have to let the media ask her questions.
I'm really missing Tim Russert right now. He should've gotten a chance to interview her this weekend.
Chris Matthews Explodes at Pat Buchanan
Tim Russert, I miss you. But stuff like this makes me feel better. Thank goodness for hard questions. Chris Matthews ... go get em.
John McCain: I am not an Expert
>> ^Lunaped:
All I can say is that at least he was honest about his ignorance.
He wasn't honest about it; he lied about it until Russert confronted him with the quote.
Tim Russert Interviews Hunter S. Thompson
Nice sift.
Hunter S. simply saw too much for his own good. We weren't as smart as he and his impatience got the best of him.
Does anyone suspect foul play in the death of Tim Russert? He was such a trusted & stand-up newsman -- it wouldn't surprise me that he'd be on the brink of breaking a new story when he'd suddenly "drop dead" of heart failure, while Cheney still plagues the planet.

Tom Brokaw Reports on the death of Tim Russert
He was the most prepared, unbiased, and probing modern day Journalist. The first amendment needs a new friend in Washington now that Mr. Russert is gone.
Tim Russert is Dead at 58 (Politics Talk Post)
That is very shocking and sad. Too sudden and too young to go. R.I.P. Tim Russert.
Tom Brokaw Reports on the death of Tim Russert
I'm still trying to process this. To a large extent, I'm finding I'm in denial.
Russert should've been annoying politicians, infuriating me with his obsession on the immaterial, and being one of the major names in modern political media for at least another decade.
I remember him when he had Chuck Todd's job during the '92, and '96 elections, on camera with a whiteboard and a marker, crunching electoral math with what was certainly a childlike excitement.
This guy loved what he did. He lived and breathed politics, and while I've not always agreed with what he's had to say, I've always listened to it.
He will be missed.
