Jim Lehrer - Rummie
He did an extremely professional job interviewing him; So I wrote him a kind note, thanking him. He wrote a very nice note back. Proving again, he is a class act.
I am so glad he will be running one of the debates.

Watch out shrub. You may find yourself tongue tied.

5. sure nuff, boss
I told him that I pledged, that I was impressed by the way he conducted the interview, by how he was firm, but polite, pinning him down when Rummie tried to weasel out.

Told him: It was a pro job, neither attacking nor partisan, and he got a great interview out of it. Told him, finally, that his effort is precisely what news TV should be about.

If you saw the interview, methinks you'd agree. If shrub would ever submit to such scrutiny, you'd have headlines for days about how stupid that man is. I really hope he gets Alan Keyes on TV, too.

4. Thanks for your positive feedback to Lou, lp! It's about as important...
as protesting bad media work.
