Hello... Doug, I popped in here because you just posted (on OTB) on Gary Bauer. You ended with "Anyone who follows Bauer's advice is a fool". You used to make my day by posting something ridiculous and adding your own, one-word commentary, "dumbass". It was always correct; like the WWII surrender response, "Nuts", no other words were needed to pad the truth. Too bad you don't (can't? I understand) say "dumbass" anymore. Ahh, the perils of a wider audience. Twins will beat the Yanks in October, I'm sure of it this time. John Peabody Hello? Hello…
