Free speech lost one of its biggest champions today with the death of Tim Russert. He spent much of his career standing up for you and me, and taught all of us that not only is it OK, but that, in a democracy, it is required for all of us to hold our leaders responsible for their decisions and actions - and that accountability, ethics and the truth will always win (and the lack of those traits will expose the pretenders).
Sunday mornings will never be the same. So long, Tim, and thanks.
