He does seem to be unfocused at times. Both my mom and I turn it off when he goes on about silly stuff. To be fair, I do the same when Laura Ingraham talks about how cute her kids are, or Beck and his minions guffaw about whatever. Things in this country are very bad, and likely to get worse, and my patience is low.

Yes, those are good points, I think. Several programs have a lot of fluff in them, which I don’t care for.

And I tend to tune out the talking heads who banter back and forth about nothing pretending they are long lost brothers, when they probably don’t even know each other...I’m talking about NEWS broadcasts.

Seems to be more personality contests and little hard news.

I guess I’m showing my age. The country is falling apart before my eyes. I hardly recognize it anymore. I’m old enough to say what I think without worrying too much about stepping on someone’s toes. End of rant.

I’m with you. I’ve always liked and admired Rush but don’t listen as often as I used to. On the other hand, I have become overfed with Hannity, Levin, O’Reilly, and a few others. I’ve known Mark Levin for many years and like him a lot, but his anger is off putting. I really don’t like to be shouted at, and Mark does shout.

There is a fresh new (nationally) voice coming from Washington. He has been on WMAL in Washington for several years and can be seen on occasion on one of the Fox TV shows. He is Chris Plante. He is now in other cities (We get him on Memphis radio)I’m pretty sure that you can get WMAL online.

I’ve found it’s hard to deal with people who don’t seem to “get it” regarding where the country and world are at right now.

I do realize that sometimes people need a break. It’s why there were movies even during the Great Depression.

I think I’m just feeling such an urgency about the damage that’s spiraling out of control, while the checks and balances refuse to do anything about it - that other talk is sort of like somebody bleeding out waiting for the doctor to finish telling a joke before bothering to apply a tourniquet.

Nobody knows how to apply a tourniquet, and it’s a very scary thing.
