This is terrible. DB Update has been a part of my morning for a long time, just as Rush was part of my morning.

Two blows in one year...

David, good luck. Thanks for your efforts here. I remember pegging your early work as professional and predicted your success because of a lively style and distinctive voice. It must be a heckuva grind to write a daily column, and sometimes two with updates within updates. You were a champ at it. With your immersion in all this, I think you’ve enough in you to write a book or two that would do as much good as your columns without killing you. It’d be fun again. Look forward to seeing you produce something. I’ll be a fan of that, too.

I could blame Google, which has systematically blocked traffic to the site – or more accurately, the count of that traffic, upon which all advertising revenue is based.

Thus, proving correct everyone, including myself, who said this blogger's sole purpose in posting excerpts of so-called articles here is to drive traffic to their own site to make money off the clicks of unsuspecting FReepers.

Also proving that the blogger was knowingly doing so in direct violation of Jim Robinson's own wishes that Free Republic and its readers not be mined is such a fashion.

Good riddance.

I remember when Rush Limbaugh dropped his TV show right in the middle of the 1992 campaign.

I remember when Newt Gingrich departed being a Republican stalwart after being removed as Speaker of the House.

I remember when Brit Hume retired as anchor of Foxnews Special Report in 2008.

I remember when Jim Lehrer ended his tenure as a regular anchor of PBS Newshour in 2011.

Journalism will continue a decline with the departure of David Blackmon, who I thought would continue as a counterweight to the clownshow we now call mainstream media.

I will miss his wisdom and wit, indeed, and I wish he would find another venue to continue (Rush Limbaugh EIB show, for instance), or alone with his own podcast (similar to Scott Adams), if necessary.

I have an idea. Instead of commenting on how badly we are getting Scr**ed by this tyrannical government, how about a commentary to all of us out their about what is getting done by others to reverse this situation. You know! focus on the positive. It seems that their is a lot out there. Everything is not going the way of the communist takeover.

Could be stimulating for those that feel lost and isolated.

Just a thought
