You should take your own advice.

This is unlikely to get in the way of his frequent PBS appearances ...

Gergen was often too lib for me, but, damn, I wouldn’t wish that fate on anyone...

May he rest in peace, now.

Decades ago, some wag called his segments “Gurglin’ with Gergen.”

Unlike the Communist Democrats, unless a person abuses or kills others, I do not wish for his death. RIP David.

I always thought he was a decent person. Was he a little left? Sure, but so was Tip O’Neill. Godspeed, David.

We have a few here that apparently trusted David Rodham Gergen.

The ONLY regret I had about President Trump winning in 2024 was that Rush wasn’t around to see it.

He didn’t “serve” Republican and democrats….. he served the deep state and the squishy RINOs and democrats.

Such a bullshit artist that used a deep voice to sound sincere.

Good bye….. enjoy the after life

RIP.

When I was younger, our family would watch PBS and the MacNeil Lehrer newshour around dinner time.
Back then, news commentators were better at separating the news from their opinions and were more civil about it than today.
