And would I have been a great golfer if I could have hit the ball the way Sam Snead could?

Yes, but I couldn't, so while it makes for nice discussions, it's useless fantasy.

What isn't fantasy is that several of the people running for president with the backing of what was once the party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Eisenhower think that creationism should be taught in schools, that a huge wall (Trump said that he'd make it look really great) should be built between the US and its southern neighbor, that millions of people doing important work in the US should be put on trucks and sent somewhere, that despite the fact that the US spends more than twice on defense than the next 10 countries combined it needs to spend more, that Mitt Romney should be taxed at the same rate as a widow whose only income is social security, and we need more, not fewer, guns.

Now..these are some fantasies that make my golf dreams look realistic.

Anyone with a brain can figure that out... even TV journalists.

So, does the mainstream media treat these people with respect?

I certainly hope that they don't.
