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.

A-Hole Of The Week


Nichols
Ohio Rep. Debbie Phillips (D-Athens) asked the Kasich administration for more information on the firing of Ohio EPA Division Chief George Elmaraghy.  Her request was ignored.  Gov. Kasich's press secretary/droogie Rob Nichols explained, saying that Phillips always opposes "job creators", and "If she had her way, we'd all be living on a collective farm cooking organic quinoa over a dung fire.  So we'll take her views in context."

Let's check your context, Rob:  Ohio's coal companies are righteous job creators who can do no wrong.  Phillips is a Communist.  You don't respect farmers, and you don't like organic grains.  Does that about sum it up?

Elmaraghy was unceremoniously dumped because he wouldn't kneel to Kasich's pro-coal pressure.  Phillips public records request is entirely reasonable.

And the next time we want a dung fire, all we need to do is put a match to Rob Nichols.  What an asshole!
