I might have punctuated it differently, and if — in penance for some grave misdeed — I were a member of Congress, even I probably would have left out the part about the president’s “amusement.” Still, Stark’s clearly got a point: Where will we get more soldiers to fight Islamo-fascism in Iraq if our chil- dren grow up wracked by disease? Ha ha! I am merely being Swiftian, of course: Pete Stark knows that we mostly get other people to fight for us nowadays, anyway. Also, Islamo-fascism isn’t a real word. But I digress. With the possible exception of the “amusement” part, I don’t see what the problem is. We’re exsanguinating the government’s coffers to fight a war that we cannot possibly win, so who can blame lawmakers for getting fed up when this administration’s war spend- ing — and cozy relationship with the insurance industry — ends up costing yet more Americans one of their most basic rights? The GOP, that’s who. And, boy did they ever leap on those high horses of theirs. Minority Leader John Boehner said Stark had “dishonored” our troops. The National Republican Congressional Committee said that he had “trampled” on their sacrifice. Texas (natch) Rep.

RockiesBy Arnie Stapleton enjoy invisibility ASSOCIATED PRESS BOSTON — Brad Hawpe wore his camouflage shirt around town Tuesday and blended right in. So did the rest of his Colorado teammates.

I can still walk around Den- ver, Boston, wherever I want, no problem.” The Rockies are unrecognized and unbothered in Boston. Most everywhere else, too. Todd Helton doesn’t feel the wrath of Red Sox fans as Derek Jeter does. Star outfielder Matt Holliday doesn’t get bugged for autographs like David Ortiz. They go out to dinner, nobody badgers them. They stroll around town, nobody blinks. Kids don’t run up and adults don’t pull out their cell phones to take photos or call their friends. “I don’t think we’re getting the ‘there go the Rockies.’ I don’t think we’re getting that kind of treat- ment,” Holliday said. “We’re not necessarily getting everybody throwing themselves at us.” Elise Amendola/Associated Press Which is quite understandable.
