We then taped it with black electrical tape which gave it a bit more life. Eventually, even the tape failed, revealing the interior stitching and at the center a very hard rubber ball.  &lt;br /&gt;   At some point we pooled our money and bought a new baseball. &lt;br /&gt;Our system which I would say is Fascist is similar. The bright new Hog$hitt exterior hiding all the interior stitching of Crony-Capitalism, patronage and a compliant intellectually challenged McMega-Media and City Council. The Hog$hitt ball is not meant to played with, it is placed in glass case for all us proles to marvel at.  </content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4681923823975472139/comments/default/7416188835998058838'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4681923823975472139/comments/default/7416188835998058838'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2015/12/what-fred-said.html?showComment=1451318573269#c7416188835998058838' title=''/><author><name>Flogger</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/10383015097067413086</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2015/12/what-fred-said.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-4681923823975472139' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/4681923823975472139' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-239220855"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="11:02 AM GMT-5"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-5629219324761516264</id><published>2015-12-28T00:59:07.489-05:00</published><updated>2015-12-28T00:59:07.489-05:00</updated><title type='text'>How anyone can ascribe the last eight years of our...</title><content type='html'>     How anyone can ascribe the last eight years of our mayor with such fanfare only proves that the media is part of the problem.
