Doakes Sunday: Wishful Thinking
By Mitch Berg
Joe Doakes from Como Park is a pretty peripatetic writer. Some weeks, he sends me a couple emails on a couple of issues.
Other weeks, I think he may write more stuff than I do. And he doesn’t actually want to write for this blog, per se; just likes to send “letters to the editor”.
And I figured it was time I pared down some of the backlog. So today, I’m going to run a slew of Joe’s emails that, for whatever reason, I didn’t run during this past week or so.
Starting with this one:
Come on, give the guy a break. It’s like Elizabeth Warren claiming to be an Indian, Halle Berry claiming to be a Black woman, or President Obama claiming to be an American – it’s a matter of desire, not evidence.

The guy doesn’t look a day over 85…
