What's a troll, exactly? Is it someone who says something you don't agree with but can't refute?

Yes, I think that's what it is.

If your boy is so great, be a man and try to do the impossible. Explain why Obama isn't an utter and abject incompetent cartoon of a president?

That is a really dumb statement. Russia was pushed to complete privatization and today China has the fastest growing private industry. They in no way still practice social economics though they both maintain a totalitarian hold on their citizens and neighbors in order to crush resistance to further privatization and deregulation.

But that is beside the point. Of course those governments would ridicule the Obama administration. They are not socialists!

If anyone in Chicago it should be those Friedmanites over at University of Chicago for hatching up the wonderful neo-liberal ideas that have ripened our economy for disaster.

The Sox are morons.

Bad move. Bad move.

Eh -- the stars that made it happen in '05 and gave it a run in '08 are getting old. I think the Sox have basically conceded that it's rebuilding time.

Crede is no that old. :-) He signed with the Twins for cheap.

I'm annoyed at the Sox for not trading him and getting something back. They just gave gold glove offense away to their main rival in the division.

I find it very hard to believe that Obama is going to cut the deficit in half when he's already well on his way to doubling it. This country will be paying for years if he keeps it up.

Signed,
Republican who obviously hates black people because I don't agree with socialist policies.

I think the Cubs regularly demonstrate that sentimentality is a fine way to put butts in seats, but no way to win a World Series.

If the '05 heroes aren't getting it done today, it's time to make some changes.

The Sox put butts in seats by having A.J. Pierzynski punch someone or having some mullet-wearing fans attack an umpire. It's WWE land down there. They should sign Hulk Hogan.

But anyway, what impact do you think Milton Bradley will have this year?
