I was under the impression that revenge was a goal that was supposed to be pursued subtly in Washington, in order to avoid looking like a petulant child. But baseball, of all things, seems to be interfering with the normal affairs of politicians.
Among the numerous groups bidding for the Washington Nationals is one that includes billionaire financier and political bankroller George Soros, who heavily supported Dems in 2004 to the tune of $20 mil. Understandable that Republicans don't like him. But for them to publicly say that it would be better if he didn't win the bid, because if he did, they might refuse to ever help the team again?
"They enjoy all sorts of exemptions' from anti-trust laws. Rep. John Sweeney (R-N.Y.), vice chairman of the Appropriations subcommittee that covers the District of Columbia budget, said if Soros buys the team and seeks public funding for a new stadium or anything else, the GOP attitude would be, "Let him pay for it.""
Why, this is amazing! Liberals may hate American soldiers and love terrorists, but i'll be goddamned if the Republicans aren't even worse. They hate baseball! Sickening.
