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.

Admiration For Corker & McCain


I've always suspected there must be some good, some integrity, some self-respect in at least some Republicans.  In recent days and hours, Senators Bob Corker and John McCain have demonstrated they possess those virtues.  I'm not a big fan of either, but they're doing the right thing, and I'm grateful.

It's just a goddam shame it took lame-duck status, brain cancer, and the historic disaster that is Donald Trump for them to display these admirable traits.  But they finally spoke out.  It will be another goddam shame if their Republican colleagues are too cowardly to join them.  Robbie Portman, I am looking at you.
