  • Hardly a conservative

    Somethings Goldberg says is very interesting, but he is hardly a conservative. After Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a leftist, Goldberg's main concern is how the right is reacting to it. He said he doesn't like Matthew Dowd, but is barely one degree of separation from him.

  • 9/12 man of integrity

    Jonah is like the line judge who calls the ball as it lies whether it helps or hurts his team. Actually although quite concervative, he tries not to play for a team.

    If we all had such internal consistency.

    One complaint: next time you use obscure linguistic terms, be sure you pronounce them carefully and with e-nunc-i-a-tion. Google got me through merkin pretty quickly, but I spent a good five minutes with ChatGPT, all to puzzle out a word I can only use once.

  • Buzz Kill Jonah

    Avoiding the politics of the day is ok, but dumping on personal choices like legal gambling, marijuana, pornography and other libertarian issues is quite the turn. Soon he’ll want to ban cigars SMH
