This owner had the opportunity for weeks of becoming the owner of horse winning the triple crown. He was probably a physical, emotional and spiritual wreck for every minute after his horse won the first leg, and doubly so after the second. And at the height of his exhaustion, two minutes plus after the the most exciting race of his life, his hopes were dashed on the rocks of reality.

I’ve watched and dealt with people that were not at their best and sometimes it is not pretty. But for the most part, it is human. He asked for forgiveness, in what ever way he did. I don’t have any real contact with him, and probably will never hear of him again. It is a fallacy of our relationship with the media to be able to judge on the worst snippet of his life. Just laugh a little and think of the poor guy on google maps in CA whose claim to fame was being an internet sensation for have the bad luck to be picking his nose at the bus stop when google maps snapped his pic and it went viral.

He may have better days to be judged by, and I would hope to be judged by my better days than my worst.

Except when I was lucky enough to catch Right Wing Professor saying the most incredibly stupid thing as a scientist that he possibly say, while arguing for the “Theory of Evolution”. I will forever remember that he claimed Epistemology was unimportant to evaluation of the theory, and it still brings a tear to my eye. LOL

He definitely isn’t part of the globalist elite.
