Why is Arnold going to be on? To talk about his new Terminator movie? Mark Cuban, too? To talk about the NBA season?

Not watching any of them. Democrats go after Republicans. Republicans go after Democrats. Same old, same old!

Morning AB yet another busy week in the "neighborhood". And talking about "the neighborhood" here's what I saw yesterday.This movie left an indelible impression:

...............................

Yesterday along with my wife we watched A wonderful day in the neighborhood,the story of Fred Rogers.I just had to write about it.

.....................

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

We all live in Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood. It’s a wonderful place to be.

Of course it’s only ours if we can keep it.

Keeping it is the challenge.

What is Mr.Rogers’ neighborhood?

If you haven’t seen the movie yet be sure and do so. But, be advised it will change you.

It’s just that kind of movie.Tom Hanks was beyond superlative. He was Mr.Rogers and then some. There are no movie roles to compare him to, they don’t exist.

This will be his greatest role. Who cares if he gets the Oscar or not anyone who sees the movie knows who deserves it. As for those who would cheat him out of it we know who these people are. They don’t live in Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood they haunt the place.

Mr.Rogers’ neighborhood may be the greatest movie of all time for conservatives and just people who love their country but really aren’t sure why.

Mr.Rogers played by Tom Hanks changes Matthew Rhys’ life from a rough tough journalist seeing/looking only for the worst in people to more like the real Fred Rogers. How do you describe Fred Rogers? You can’t.He’s bigger than life and it shows throughout the movie.

The first time I shed tears was when the two,Rhys and Rogers, were traveling on on the subway and a young black girl across the aisle from him shouted: “hello Mr. Rogers”!! Shortly thereafter the entire subway car breaks into one of Mr.Rogers favorite tunes from his show and you begin to see just who this guy really is and was. He is beyond an icon! He is everyone’s favorite relative.He’s the minister we always wanted. The man we all want to talk to when the going gets tough. Most of all he’s someone who puts himself last and his friends,the world, first.

Rogers (played by Hanks) is almost too good to be true but never stops helping those in need such as Rhys who has never forgiven his father for walking out on the family in their time of need.

Rogers slowly walks Rhys through the process and it’s tear shedding every few minutes if you are alive at all.Just that kind of show.

An hour and forty seven minutes after it started Mr.Rogers Neighborhood has ended.I had watched dozens of movies in our small theater in the Upper Keys. There were perhaps two dozen of us in the room.The movie ended but no one got up to go. We all sat there for what seemed like a long long time.The two teens in front of me who had a hard time turning off their cellphones were quiet,the big guy across the aisle who ate a lot of popcorn said nothing. No one got up.It was "that" kind of moment and few will forget it.

I recalled the days of my young daughter watching the real Mr. Rogers day after day looking forward to each and every new show and the other examples of Mr.Rogers we were now recalling in our lives.

The High school principal who climbed a telephone pole to rescue a student who had lost his way in life. The business man who welcomed a couple into his resort for five months after their house burned down and they lost everything. The leader of a nation who was appalled at the way our vets had been treated for decades that he changed it with a pen stroke.The same leader who would not accept “our best days being behind us” but proved they were yet to be lived. And so many more great Americans who all had a little bit of Mr.Rogers within them and even more who will keep his message alive.

For us Mr.Rogers’ legacy is as real as it gets and should be.

We live in a wonderful country.

Yet there are those who try and take it away, destroy it, bring it down to the level of other places not even close to what we have here in the US.

We can’t and won’t let that happen.We will stop those who try.

Fortunately, we have the best leadership there is and we will help him as long as he is there and beyond.

Mr. Rogers was the best of the best. We need to make sure the future Mr.Rogers’ of the country get the chances they need to Make America Great Again!

Maria’s taking the day off? Is she even allowed to do that!!!??

I have no grief with Mike Emmanuel but the guest line-up this morning doesn’t have anyone I’m interested n watching.

That’s fine. I’m tired. I’ll go sleep for any hour or three.

F.Chuck Todd is such a good little liberal. I’m stuck here in the west so that my only 7 am choice is MTP, which is predictably insufferable. No different today.

A cast of liberals condemning the Gallagher / Spencer kerkuffle , global warming, etc., blah, blah, blah. The only redeeming segment appears to lead off the show with R Senator Kennedy who wanted to apologize for an error he made last week with Chris Wallace re: Ukraine. Odd, but newsworthy if a Republican admits a mistake, I suppose.

That conversation devolved into related Trump impeachment issues which I missed but are worthy of checking the transcripts. Todd went heavy partisan.

Once again democrats running these shows and their liberal ‘guests’ think they ‘get’ the Trump base through their use of rumor and focus groups...

What a waste of time...

Guy Benson of Townhall.Com on Media Buzz commenting on Rudy’s work in the Ukraine:
“I think think there is an enormous stench emitting from Rudy Giuliani involving all of this stuff and there has been for a long time. And these are just more details explaining why the stench is so strong.”
(Details referenced were the charge Rudy tried to obtain a $200,000 contract for his work in exposing Biden, which Biden didn’t take saying it would look bad.)

Is Benson a never-trumper? I don’t know much about him? He was in the spot that Mollie Hemingway previously occupied until she was banned for uttering the whistleblowers name.

The Sunday “news” shows are leftist clown shows. Complete waste of time.

It’s Sunday and boy do we miss David Brinkley, Lawrence A. Spivak, Tim Russert & John McLaughlin. The decline of Sunday news shows into progressive propaganda operations, with Democrat hosts of little knowledge & talent, is abundantly clear. And a great disservice to our country.— Mark R.
