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.

Credit Where Credit Is Due


Final score Obama 1, Osama 0. The quiet, intelligent, steady President got the bad guy. He accomplished what the addle-brained, bellicose, buckaroo Dubya could not. Yet even as former Bushies praise Obama for a job well done, they also try to claim some of the credit for themselves. "Laying the groundwork", they call it.

Well, bullshit! The Bush-wads taking credit for the death of Bin Laden is like Neville Chamberlain taking credit for the death of Hitler; like the caveman who carved the first stone wheel taking credit for the radial tire.

Let's give credit where credit is due, and that's to Cousin Barry.
