What's all this "deal with it" crapola? Hey, isn't that what the "brownshirts" told folks in the 30's in Germany. Deal with it is an irresponsible response... Dealing with *the problem*, as in fixing broken stuff, is a responsible response. And Bush is the problem, front and center...

Yeah, munchie, with yer attitude black folks would still be slaves...

The laws against marijuana are ignorant, and were put there by ignorant people, of which there are many. Deal with it.

As for Bush and baseball, who cares? Of course, if you hate Bush, you're gonna harp on anything he does. He's President of the USA.


deal with it...

Dog Genes, I though you were rolling on the floor trying to sniff your own ass.

Bobert, you are such a champion in your own mind and of nothing else.

Your ego is I believe dwarves Bush's and gets nothing accomplished.

In war, there will be deaths. Are you ever so perceptive.

Strike? Lockout? Neither, really. The players are in cahoots with the big money of the NHL, who are going to start a WHL, World Hockey League. Money, money, money. Just keep watching... you'll see.

Maybe a good answer, but not terribly accurate. They're locked out, not on strike.

Bush and baseball. Drilling in Alaska. War and Peace efforts on a global scale. Drugs and poverty.

I note that the lead Canuck news story this AM is that the Supreme Court of Canada has upheld Quebec's ban on the sale of yellow margerine. Now, if we could just get them to ban reruns of old hockey games on TSN and Rogers Sportnet and give us some real sports, I could truly bury my head in the snow.

The figure of 100,000 comes from "The Lancet". Go to approximately 2/3 of the way down the page on the link.

So...who's winning? Bush or the baseball? Who threw the first punch? Why hasn't the Secret Service tackled the baseball to the ground or shot it or something? Is nothing sacred anymore?

Will our PM, John Martin, shortly be found grappling on the front lawn of parliament with a rogue hockey puck? I certainly hope not!

Hey, BALLS are not healthy, esp when the cost several mill per player!! I'm NOT in favour of steroids, but I can't see what the weed hurts. Really, and I'm a cops wife. He agrees with me. Weed ain't the Big Problem here.

Yo Martin, you glad that Congress is ignoring the fact that yer guy's policies have put more of our elderly in poverty than any administration in your life time?

No, didn't think so...

Or that yer guy is directly responsible for the deaths of over 100,000 Iraqis who did nuthing wrong except get in the way of one of yer guys' bombs, artillery shells or bullets>

No, didn't think so...

But lets sho nuff focus on the 5% of baseball players who use drugs! Man, they is even more dangerous that Osoma hisself...BTW, where's Osoma bin Forgotten..

Nevermind... Gotta get them druged up baseball players... Firget Osama. Firget out eldery citizens... Might of fact just firget everything...

Yeah, Martin, I know yer gonna just shug it off and maybe say something real cleaver that involves bodily parts but I got a little file on you from yer shrink and he says that you are suffering from polymorphorse perverse guilt...

Lot of that going 'round...

Marijuana is illegal and should be. Deal with it.

I am glad that Congress is looking into illegal use of steroids in America's pastime, baseball. Too many high school kids are on the wrong path in their athletic programs trying to emulate the pros.

Plain and simple, it's not healthy.

Steroids should be banned in all of sports. Illegal drug use in America must be kept in the forefront.

Well, well, well...

Poverty has increased by 2 percentage points in my state since George Bush took office in 2001. A large percentage of these folks are elderly.

Yet, here the Bush folks and his peons are trying to get the nation riled up because maybe 5% of baseball players used illegal drugs?...

Oh, how friggin' scarey. Makesme want to run thru the streets screaming in terror...

Yet, how much are we hearing about like, ahhhh, real people who are living in poverty?... Like none...

Talk about some messed up priorities to me...

And just one other observation. The Bush family is a very vindcitive family. Yeah, they will have *their* pound of flesh...

So, as a sidebar, it is MO that Bush is still mad about his days of tyring to manage the Texas Rangers, which he incidently did (as per usual) very poorly. Yeah, I think he is still angry at these guys asking for more than the minimum wage to play ball...
