   I am amazed that there is anyone, even a democrat, who thinks Sotomayor is more qualified to be on the court than Kavanaugh. Talking about looking through the wrong end of the telescope.

   The tension in a close game in baseball is that a score can arise in less than a second, at any time. Don’t blink. The Sept 9, 1965 game at Dodger Stadium was surely the best ever. Other than maybe July 2, 1963 at Candlestick Park.

   We have the best economy since Reagan, and the most stable world internationally since Eisenhower. Seemingly people can only be angry when things are going well, too worried about self during other times.

   He was dating Barb, but they are taking a break in the relationship (at Barb’s suggestion.) Elena appeared around the time they started their break.

   Next thing Carmen will be saying “a rising tide lifts all boats.”

   I am a Braves partisan, and we are still angry. There is no rational argument that Urena had any intent other than to maim Acuna. You can pitch inside with a breaking ball without permanent injury. His triumphant mound behavior after hitting Acuna, coupled with is comments after the game (“let’s move on”) prove intent.To give Marlins fans credit, however, they reacted to Acuna this weekend the same way Braves fans reacted to the late Jose Fernandez – with heartfelt applause at every at bat (Fernandez was good enough hitting that he could have been an every day player.) Acuna seems to be one of those rare creatures (like Trout, Harper, and Judge) who lives up to the hype. Marlins are about a year behind the Braves in their rebuilding, but they will never get there with bush tactics; the game has changed. Hope the Braves try to sign Realmuto – he is maybe the best catcher in baseball.

   Hope all leftists will read Walter Williams’s great essay today, “Bad Men, Good Presidents.”https://townhall.com/columnists/walterewilliams/2018/08/22/bad-men-good-presidents-n2511320

   John Dean did not tell the truth. Ask Gordon Liddy, who read “Silent Coup.”

   Dear Darsan, the 2008 collapse was a direct result of several leftist policies:

   the Basel protocols, that forced all regulators to call mortgage loans “risk free”

   mismanagement of FNMA/FHLMC by leftists lining their pockets, refusing to spend a dime to look at the paper they were buying (or to even set minimal standards for the paper) and repackaging to unwary sellers relying on the taxpayer guaranties

   democrat congress in Oct 2007 reversing 300 years of real property law, giving bankruptcy judges arbitrary power to reduce the value of a mortgage (so when the first hint questioning the value of US-backed mortgage values arose, the entire market collapsed.)

   You guys who talk about “derivatives” don’t have the foggiest idea what you are talking about. Much like those who say the stock market crash “caused” the Great Depression.

    There are none so blind as those who will not see. The Obama administrations never prosecuted the obvious crimes in its midst: Clinton Urania 1 bribery; Mexican gang war – 20,000 dead, aggravating illegal immigration to US – started by Holder’s minions in ATF; Lois Lerner freezing out legitimate not-for-profits because they opposed Obamaism; Clinton negligence in handling state secrets; Brennan manufacturing a phony crime to spy on the Trump campaign.

    Obama was not corrupt, just because all of his appointments were; most likely Benghazi proves mere incompetence, his choice to attend a campaign fund raiser while his ambassador was dying.
