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 Multiple Choice Question


Which scandal is least important to the Future of the Free World, our American Way of Life, and our Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness?  


a.  The New England Patriots may have deflated their footballs by 3 or 4 psi, and QB Tom Brady may or may not have been complicit in softening his balls.  (Ooh!)










b.  As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton used private email to conduct some official government business.








c.  Foreign (i.e. not Americans, OMG!) donors have contributed to the non-profit charitable Clinton Foundation.








d.  All of the above.












The correct answer is d.  All of the above.  None are "scandals", none are important, and none of them matter in the slightest.  They do not deserve our attention.  (Of course, I've just given them some attention, haven't I?)
