When the 'dumb' gets embarrassing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The truest, most insightful thing Donald Trump has ever said is, "I love the poorly educated." The man who has no clue as to how dumb he himself actually is, is actually smart enough to know that his ace in the hole is that there are a lot of other dumb people in America. Dumb enough to think that having a lot of money means you're smart, rather than lucky at birth. Dumb enough to vote for him three times, even though he did know in the past how to bankrupt three casinos, an airline, a college a

à ? ? ? €œYou tell people what you think. You tell the truth."

When The Record went the way of many local newspapers -- cutting "non- essential" features (and people) to increase profits for corporate investors -- I continued to write the column on a less regular basis for my Internet blogs. Still do. All told, it's been about 20 years. I think it's an important topic that is often lost in the daily grind of "news." The other

The lowest price I saw today for gasoline in our mid-Hudson region of New York was $4:16 per gallon. The Food and Drug Administration, its rank of inspectors sharply reduced by the Trump administration, announced that organic frozen blueberries are being recalled in several states because of the risk of e-coli infection, which has caused vomiting, diarrhea and, well, death. Measles cases are multiplying. The U.S. resumed military action in the illegal war with Iran by attacking a wedding, killin
