When I saw what was happening last night, Sunday night, and realized that exactly enough Democrats were capitulating to the demands of the fascist movement to restrict the rights and healthcare of tens of millions of Americans, I was viscerally upset and angry, and could not fall asleep till about 2:30 this morning and had to wake up at five to go to work. I was gritting my teeth in the shower when I remembered a story which was told to me a fair number of years ago, (and I know youre all dying to hear what that was about).
I used to treat several members of the family of a renowned NBA head coach. He had attended college in Philadelphia and still returned there in the off-season. One of his sisters told me a funny story one time. He was eating dinner in an upscale restaurant in the city in which he was coaching, and one of the patrons recognized him, came over introduced himself, shook his hand, and then said But coach, I dont understand why you didnt rotate so-and-so in in the fourth quarter of the game last night.
The coach very quietly, in a very controlled fashion said to the gentleman, Maybe, just maybe I knew that so-and-so could not hit a jump shot from 12 feet all week in practice and you did in fact, not know that.
The lesson to be learned is that theres a lot going on of which we are unaware, and even though I agree wholeheartedly with everyone here who is spitting nails, I have no choice pbut to sit back and wait and see if in fact, something is going to occur, such as the vote to release the Epstein files or whats left of them.
