Paper Bullets of the Mouth? Who would ever allow such a thing? Have they ever met me? And yet, what a pleasant time we had talking about Dodger baseball. A real pleasure after a tremendous season.
“Nelson even named the ‘many ills that plague our world, including hate, civil unrest, racism, violence, dishonesty and lack of civility.’ That this is a robust summary of Republican neo-Confederatism is hardly a coincidence.”
