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.

Mitch McConnell's Alternate Reality

My favorite Kentucky turtle, Sen. Mitch McConnell, had this to say yesterday on President Obama's reelection:

"It's time for the President to propose solutions that actually have a chance of passing the Republican-controlled House."

What weird universe is this?  Has Mitch gone through a wormhole?  Shell-shock from the losses absorbed by Republicans?  A Democrat was reelected as President, Democrats added a couple seats in the Senate, and the Dems will add seats in the House, too, perhaps 6 or 7.  And the Senate Minority leader says, essentially, that "since we R's just took a whuppin', it's obviously time to compromise, and compromise means go screw yourself, Mr. President, and just do everything we want."

The good people of Kentucky can do better than this obstructionist asshole.
