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.

With Us, Against Us


With Us:

SCOTUS again affirms Obamacare.  Scalia freaks out.  GOP has no plan, no answer.  "Hey, hey! What do say? ACA is here to stay!"








Our local flag merchant does an abrupt and tearful about-face after a social media backlash and decides to stop selling Confederate battle flags.  "Oh, boo-hoo, we're so sorry we were offensive while profiting from racism."





Judge blocks unconstitutional new Kansas law banning all abortions after just 12 weeks of pregnancy.  Gov. Brownback is not having a good year.  Thanks to him, Kansas is broke and stupid.






Against us:

All 13 GOP presidential candidates still oppose Obamacare, despite SCOTUS ruling.  RNC Chairman Obergruppenfuhrer Reince Priebus says that's why we need the final solution -- a Republican president who will ruthlessly repeal it, remove it, and then do what . . . ???  (They have no fucking idea.)





Ohio Senate OK's an unconstitutional ban on all abortions after just 20 weeks of pregnancy.  Straight gerrymandered party-line vote.  Now on to the Ohio House.  Please call or write your Rep. to oppose this hateful, punitive, and medically unsound bill.  If it passes the House, will Gov. Kasich have the nuts and guts to veto it?






Scott Walker signs law to eliminate Wisconsin's 48-hour waiting period for gun purchases.  "Not because it's a good idea, not because I really hunt deer, but because the NRA told me to, and I do what I'm told."
