Random Thoughts

I am getting to a low point in my political news junkie cycle. I am tired of hearing the same thing over and over again. Why is ALL the "debate" reduced to 2 talking heads talking (or usually yelling) over one another? And they are only hitting on the most superficial talking points anyway, so it seems like a big waste of time.

I miss the days of "Firing Line" and WFB's smart debates on every subject under the sun. An hour and a half on Sunday afternoon during my college years were often spent on the floor in front of my little black and white tv totally engaged in the serious, funny, mind-expanding world of ideas and smart people. I wonder if it might not be worthwhile to re-run some of those shows... The discussions of still relevant topics could be very interesting.

I am sure I will get back to Rush and Prager and Hugh, but for now, I am going to try to read little more.
