Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Dubya on Dubya (2009)


(From the Buster Gammons column of 2/17/09)

My Legacy, According To Me. Offering up a self-assessment, George W. Bush said his major accomplishment as President was “preventing another 9/11.” Yep, ever since then, the jillions of terrorists, evil-doers and freedom-haters who want to fuck with us have checked the U.S. government website, noted the orange threat level, and thus deterred, decided to have lunch instead. Bush also noted that, on his watch, the last time Great Britain invaded remains 1812, the last time Japan bombed us was 1941, and Canada has been generally well-behaved.
