Jon Huntsman on Trump Moderating GOP Debate

"This is not about ratings for Donald Trump, this is about jobs for the American people. This is a serious debate that we ought to be having here in the United States," he said on NBC's Today. "I believe that the presidency of the United States of America is beyond reality shows. This is a joke."

I can't believe I'm agreeing with such a conservative candidate but, Amen, Brudda!

(God forbid someone holds a debate where the American people actually learn something about the candidates' platforms and where they stand on real issues. Might scare off the lowest common denominator.)

The decline of legitimate news reporting

I am reluctantly posting a link to a talk show host about whom I feel only lukewarm because of one magnificent monologue that hit the spot with me. Please listen to the rant, starting about two minutes in, and, if you and I have anything in common, feel satisfied. Give it 5-10 minutes and try to ignore the idiotic name-calling, lame rimshot jokes and major liberal bent. It'll be worth it.

Thank you, Norman Goldman, for succinctly explaining why any coverage of Donald Trump is an abandonment of decent journalism. I wish I had said it as well.
