Agreed. Of all the mainline conservative commentators, Hannity has come out of the nomination fight with high honors for fairness and speaking the truth.

No, it wouldn’t. You have a funny definition of “responsive”. What you apparently call “responsive” I find to be completely “non-responsive” from my way of looking at things.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

I am glad you brought up FR, because it is a perfect illustration of what I am talking about. You may find FR antiquated in design, but it is the very simplicity and layout that makes it so easy and quick to navigate around.

I don’t want bells and whistles, and I could care less about ads (that’s what Ad-Aware Plus is for :>), but I want a website I can scan, get the info I want, and move on - not have to scroll endlessly, click endlessly and still wonder what I have missed.

Get it now?

Why don’t websites have a “desktop viewing” option for those of us who are not a part of the 20 something “don’t bother me with any depth I only have the attention span of a flea” generation?

Can you answer that? Is it really that difficult to do? I doubt it, I think the problem is that the @%!$! website designers are themselves largely from that generation, and that they, like all good navel-gazing 20-somethings automatically assume that if its technologically new, its good, and of course, everyone agrees right? W-R-O-N-G.

Another very good ad blocker is ublock origin. One can selectively block virtually any arbitrary portion of a given page.

Oh, I have Adblock Plus and it works very well. It just amazes me that the biggest media outlets in the nation use video formats that work so poorly. I thought they were way behind the curve ten years ago and they haven’t improved a bit since then.
