    Kudos to Mr. Scarborough

    The current poisonous political climate does not serve the American people. We desperately need people from all sides of the political spectrum to advocate for their own position without rancor, disingenuousness and hypocrisy.

    Given where we are, it will also not serve the country to engage in a great "he hit me first" conversation. Mr. Scarborough is willing to articulate the hypocrisy of his own party members when that party is now running the country. I hope he is met with great openness by ideological friend and foe alike. We need more frank discussion and less partisan bickering.
