Quote from @donsurber
Dante said the devil would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven.
That would make him a Democrat.
I am a news junkie since I was old enough to read a newspaper. My addiction deepened when I had a job delivering papers in the Aetna neighborhood of Gary Indiana. There were 3 papers, the Gary paper, the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun Times. My weakness was reading the paper before folding them up to be able to throw them onto the porch.
In Emerson High School Mr. Chris (not Kris Kristofferson) Christopherson was our very engaging history teacher. I sat in the back next to a large filing cabinet filled with at least 5 years worth of news magazines, Times, US News and World Report, and Newsweek. When I wasn't engrossed in the lecture, I was reading every issue of all those magazines.
When I went to college Time magazine offered college students special prices. Even though I didn't have enough money to buy pizza on Friday night I subscribed, and kept my subscription going after I entered the ministry.
Whenever I went to the library I devoured the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. Whenever the Wall Street Journal was for sale where I shopped and I had some change, I'd buy an issue and also an issue of The New York Times.
When Mary and I were married in 2010 (both our first spouses died of cancer), and digital subscriptions became popular, I subscribed to the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and the Washington Post.
Then Trump ran for President. The degree of distortion frustrated me, and I no longer trusted my previous sources. I cancelled them all. When Mary and I moved back to Indiana, I cancelled our cable. I am even disappointed in Fox News, because now they treat Trump like Lord Voldemort, He Who Must Not Be Named.
Hence my latching onto Don Surber, a life long political reporter who sees clearly and has a dangerous sense of humor. Along with the Epoch Times and Breitbart, and now Truth Social, I can almost be satisfied with my news sources.
Thank you, Don, for your hard work, your deep research, your snese of humor, and your clarity of mind. #maddog
