 :::::::I don't think that it's appropriate to use a NPOV publication (wikipedia) to raise the visibility of that right-wing nutjob. I most certainly don't think that a Rush Limbaugh quote praising someone's impartiality as a journalist contains any merit whatsoever. Rush Limbaugh's statement is news grandstanding, and does not belong on NPOV Wikipedia ...except perhaps on Wikipedia's comedy page. PainMan, your non-NPOV is painfully obvious and entirely inappropriate in NPOV Wikipedia. Really, you're out there on the extreme right wing, trying to foist Rush Limbaugh as a hugely important journalist. This right-wing niche shockjock is not so important that his quotes deserve mention here; nor is it worth your time to try to leverage them into a NPOV Wikipedia article about a lifelong Democrat... that smells like the Republican Noise Machine game, pretending the whole world has moved left so that the rightwing non-NPOV will look more centrist and reasonable.     
 :::::::Frankly, I do not think that Tim Russert's death and the predictable quotes eulogizing him are remarkable or  important enough to merit the amount of coverage that Wikipedia's article has given them. Russert's LIFE was interesting, and should be the bulk of the Wikipedia article; the circumstances of his death deserve little more than a sentence, and the quotes from the famous and not-so-famous eulogizing the man are a collossal waste of space. If one of the eulogies revealed that Tim had secretly been married to Bob Marley, that would be news...but ""Famous man dies; world mourns; public figures say something kind about the guy"" is uninformative because it is as completely predictable as a dog barking at a cat.
