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.

Barbarians At The Gate




Some recent pearls of wisdom from would-be Republican Presidential candidates:

A Tea Bag audience cheered Ron Paul's suggestion that true freedom means letting an uninsured man die.

Another audience cheered the 234 Texas executions which have occurred on Rick Perry's watch.

Michele Bachmann called the EPA a "job killing" agency. Yes indeed, clean air and clean water are the economic boat anchors that are dragging us down, and only through increased pollution will we achieve prosperity and full employment.

Bachmann also said that vaccines cause mental retardation. If true, it's obvious Bachmann has been thoroughly vaccinated.
