I wouldn’t be opposed...I would be if it was reversed.

I’ve always liked Huckabee, but as with several others I also like, I don’t think he’s the president we need. My choices are down to two. Trump and Cruz.

Huckabee is good, intelligent, good principles, and definitely has a sense of humor. He’s made a very good comment or two in each debate, the wisecrack about wearing a Trump tie was a good example.

While I’m at it, consider a good rant some time on the ad nauseum use of all the latest politically correct catch phrases, especially “boots on the ground”.

I just emailed several people on Fox and gave them a piece of my mind. With Iraq in the forefront of the news stories, I’m hearing that phrase every 5 minutes and I consider it an insulting and derogatory method of referring to our military troops, who happen to be human beings, and 99% of the media seem to have forgotten that. I’d like to see them go to the funeral of one of our fallen military members and tell his or her family their offspring is one less pair of boots. Yes, I told Fox that too.

Start publicizing it. this is only one of several politically correct catch phrases I”m totally sick of hearing...

At the end of the day
Moving forward (totally sick of that one)
reaching out (what happened to contacted? Called? Wrote? Got in touch with?)

Start calling them out. I am. I won’t quit emailing them until I see results. I also informed them I consider it a mark of laziness, too lazy to utilize a few brain cells and think up something else, and if they can’t do better than that they wouldn’t make a pimple on a journalist’s butt. Yes, I said that too.
