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.

Biggest. Asshole. Ever.


Simultaneously insulting Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama while dreaming of nothing but old, white men with guns as president, NRA chief Wayne Lapierre had this to say recently:

"Eight years of one demographically symbolic president is enough."

Gotcha, Wayne -- no more darkies, no people without penises.

Has there ever been a bigger whore than Wayne Lapierre?  He will say and do anything as long as the death industry (guns and ammo makers) keeps throwing money at him.  What a disgusting asshole!


I say let's have a lot more demographic symbolism!  Let's get with the times.  Let's have government that resembles the larger society.  Obama was a "first," and a great one.  Let's do more firsts! 

For starters, hell yes, let's have our first woman president!  Females have been half the world's population since forever.  Some of the nations with recent or incumbent female leaders include England, Germany, Israel, Argentina, Brazil, Denmark, Jamaica, Liberia, South Korea, the Phillipines, Egypt, Pakistan, Norway, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, New Zealand, Poland, and Scotland.  Here in America, we are seriously overdue.

Hillary Clinton should exploit her gender to the max!  "Isn't it time for a woman President?"  She should say it again and again.  Put it on t-shirts and buttons and bumper stickers.  What if she picked a woman as her running mate?  What if it was Elizabeth Warren?  Kirsten Gillibrand?  OMG!  I smell Democratic landslide victory.

Then let's shatter a few more ceilings, glass or other, by electing  a procession of even more demographically significant presidents (approximately half of which should be female), such as:

Latinos, Asians, more blacks, gays and lesbians (ooh, scary!), atheists (scarier!), Jews, Muslims (scariest!), etc., etc.  Conchita Wong-Goldfarb, we need you!  Come on down!

This scenario would automatically offend most conservatives and strike them as unfair.  Wayne Lapierre would throw an embolism!  Good!!  If we're pissing off those sorts of people, we're on the right track.
