Crazy, crazy, go away….

“Very well done!” would be how I would describe the first fifteen minutes of last evenings’ Rachel Maddow Show. Ms. Maddow took pains reviewing various talking points of the Republican candidates during this election cycle. She talked about their using and exploiting ‘buzz’ words like Obamacare, the deficit and the need for smaller government.

In my opinion, in the next fifteen minutes and after the first commercial, there was a slippage from her perch as she tried to balance her presentation with talking points of the Democrats. The presentation was OK but qualitative differences between her Republican presentation and her Democratic presentation were noteworthy.

After a few more commercials, the remainder of her show suddenly plummeted to rock bottom when she had Megan McCain on. At that point, I had to change the channel. I was distressed on two fronts. First of all, I was distressed due to the fact my special set-aside time with Rachel was going to be shared with a political nut and then I was distressed realizing what a contrast having Megan McCain on as a guest was to having other special and fully cognizant guests; stimulating people possessing good, intellectually healthy and developed minds. People of character. Role models for me, my family and friends. True American patriots, if you will.

Those people are still out there. Probably sitting and waiting for a phone call but alas, not from Rachel. They remember, as do I, her interview with Republican candidate Rand Paul. I wrote about my feelings regarding the ‘not so nice’ interview she had with him. That was another sad evening for me but hey, life goes on. We all make mistakes. We all have regrets. You can’t win’em all. Here once again it’s that thing about the moving finger….

Cheers!

As always,

P.S. Maybe if Dr. Maddow were to pen a note to Dr. Paul....
