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.

Russian Indictments As Covered by "Fox & Friends"


"Fox & Friends" is Donnie Destructo's favorite morning show.  The same used to be true for our family dentist.  It was always on at his office until someone finally told told him it was offensive, obvious propaganda and would sooner or later cost him business.  These days, he gives us HGTV -- equally offensive, but not political.  But I digress.

Today, as two former Trump advisers were indicted on twelve federal charges including "conspiracy against the U.S.," an intrepid reporter with a strong stomach watched two straight hours of "Fox & Friends" to get their take on it.



In a nutshell:

9:00: Well, it’s been two hours, and I think I have a pretty good handle on the Manafort and Gates indictments: Hillary Clinton is the problem, the leakers need to be locked up, Donald Trump is a victim, the left is conspiring to ruin the country and no one is paying nearly enough attention to the scandal surrounding Fusion GPS and Uranium One. Any questions? Didn’t think so.
