Remembering Tim Russert

I don't really know why Tim Russert's death touched me as it did, but it did, and deeply. Does it matter why? I guess not. Rest in peace, Tim.

So a week ago Saturday, I pulled out this piece I had bought at Bead and Button from Gary Wilson (that's an entirely different entry) for some unknown reason. And I knew that it was a way for me to work through these feelings. It did help. A great deal.

So, even though the event happened outside the technical dates of the 2007 BJP, this is my May page. Here's to Tim who cut through the crap for me and helped me understand politics.

Today's quote comes from Tim Russert: What a country!

This is great, and a wonderful tribute. His death touched me quite a bit too, I can still cry over it a week later. Thanks!

Oh Any, this is really wonderful!!! I can piggyback on on it... throw in my respect and saddness too. Just looking at his picture and your piece together does that for me. Thank you! No problem with being outside the BJP dates... there is a lot of finishing going on. Hope your next two pieces go so quickly and in such a heart-felt way! Hugs, Robin
