Editor,

As the regular drive-by news channels, including Fox, decided to provide full coverage of the virtual Democratic Convention, where viewers would be subjected to the stale pro and con Trump blather by former and aspiring Democrat candidates, Channel 4 provided news that one can use. They provided extensive coverage of the wildfires around us with frequent, professional updates. The Democratic Convention is a canned, highly scripted event that will bring no surprises and will support, no matter what, a senile “has been” and a habitual lying individual who will say anything to please the current wind direction. We need to return to news providers that actually deliver relevant information to our daily lives.

Mr. Ulden, you have your wish this week. The Republicans good. The Democrats not only bad, but radical leftists who will let Black and Brown people into your neighborhood, and oh, don't forget that Tom Hanks and Oprah Winfrey are pedophiles. Enjoy the show.

Cindy, I have a Brown person living right on my house. She did not realize that she was Brown when we married 46 years ago in El Salvador, but now, because of racists like you, I have a wife of color. She is also the mother of three successful children, all married with children of their own. Are you happy now? Like many other Brown folk, she is a fervent supporter of Trump and proudly wears the MAGA hat when she can. Sorry to burst your leftist bubble.

Mr. Ulden--The RNC only started last night and the fact checkers could barely keep up. Enjoy this week's lineup of alien sperm doctors, the MyPillow guy, and the racist gun toting couple. Hope you had earplugs for Kim Guilfoyle (was she high?).

I'll be watching Channel 4.

Tommy,

Excellent point about Guilfoyle. I am sure you saw Donald Jr. praising daddy for the great job he did preventing the COVID -19 virus.

Tommy Tee

That was laughable! Also, Gavin Newsom is the happiest man in the world this morning!

Dirk van Ulden

Tommy - if you did not watch the RNC TV show where did you get the information about its content? You could not resist watching it, could you? BTW, I am not watching it as my vote has been cast already.

Tommy Tee

Didn't need to--it was on every media source this morning. Apparently it was like watching a train wreck, but I was too busy washing my hair.

Dirk,

Are you saying that you have voted fraudulently? The very thing that the Republicons say the Democrats do. Early voting does not start until October 5th. BTW, how many ballots did you cast?

Dirk van Ulden

No sir, I made up my mind and when the mail-in ballot comes in I will vote again for the very best President that we have had to choose in years. Don't forget that Trump is making a distinction between absentee ballots and the general mail out that the Dems prefer. The absentee ballot needs to be requested. This distinction seems to go over the heads of Democrats for ulterior reasons, including yours.

Dirk van Ulden

Well , the fact checkers may be busy but they were totally disengaged last week when the DNC had their charade. No facts were presented at all, just whiny speakers who had nothing to say other than beating up on Trump. Obama took the prize when he had the nerve to declare that trump was enriching his friends, Clearly, he had not read the various reports by Schweitzer and Malkin that made his friends rich by insidious regulation that funneled money back to him to enable the purchase of several million dollar estates in white enclaves. How does one afford those estates on a $400K/yr salary???
