Comment on: Charles Ramsey, Cleveland hero and truth-teller - Opinion - The Boston Globe
Ther are those amongst us who do not have any faults. At least in their own minds. Yeah, he did some bad stuff. But now he's done something good. In our media mad world he becomes an instant hero. May more »

Comment on: Republicans boycott committee vote on EPA nominee - - The Boston Globe
This GOP/Tea Party obstructionism will NOT be forgotten. One would think that the GOP got the message in the last election. But, apparently the loony, extreme right wing of the party still holds sway more »

Comment on: Sox David Ross, Will Middlebrooks feeling better after collision - Sports - The Boston Globe
Well, it appears the fairy tale start was just that: a fairy tale. Now the real story begins for the Sox. They didn't get much in the off season electing to go cheap this season. And now we are seeing more »

Comment on: Microsoft touching up Windows 8 to address gripes - Business - The Boston Globe
Since Bill Gates left Microsoft, it has been on a downward spiral. Albeit a slow downward spiral. But downwards. Why? It keeps shoving unwanted operating systems down our throats. Vista was the last s more »

Comment on: GOP seeks alternative to overtime pay - Business - The Boston Globe
Ahhh, yes...yet another attack by the GOP on American workers. Albeit, a much more subtle attack than usual. Anyone who has worked in a position within corporate America and is not in the salaried eli more »

Comment on: Senate passes bill letting states tax online sales - - Boston.com
It amounts to taxation without representation. Why should I pay a California sales tax and get no say in California government? I understand paying a MA sales tax. And maybe even a Federal Sales tax i more »

Comment on: Danny Ainge has tough job retooling Celtics - Sports - The Boston Globe
It is painfully obvious that the Perkins trade was a big mistake. But, he was getting injured on a regular basis back then it seemed. But, I still agree they should have kept Perk. He was Rondo's bink more »

Comment on: Celtics just not good enough - - Boston.com
As it was predicted. The Celtics didn't have even a tiny chance at winning round one without Rondo. Throw in no Sullinger, and everyone else looking confused or, in the case of Pierce and Garnett, jus more »

Comment on: Three additional people taken into custody in Boston Marathon bombings - Metro - The Boston Globe
Who knew this event would bring the wing nuts and conspiracy theorists out in such droves? The "all Muslims are Jihadists" crowd is out in full throated force. One must remember these are all young, i more »

Comment on: Red Sox manager John Farrell getting the last laugh on Toronto - Sports - The Boston Globe
What a bunch of nonsense. Torontonians need to get over being jilted by Farrell. He is just a manager after all. It is the players that do the catching of balls, the pitching and the hitting. I think more »

Comment on: Internet sales tax bill headed for passage despite antitax lobby - Business - The Boston Globe
This amounts to taxation without representation. After all, as a MA resident I barely have a voice in what my state government does with my tax dollars. What say would I have over Ohio's policies or C more »

Comment on: Celtics Look Done - - Boston.com
The Knicks will prevail. It was a forgone conclusion before this series even started. The Celtics are not a playoff team as currently constituted. When players can't make shots, it means they are tire more »

Comment on: Parents say bombing suspects are innocent - Metro - The Boston Globe
Wow. They sound like Tea Party people. And, please...don't come back. If this is the best you can do raising children maybe they should also consider being steralized so they don't have anymore. Truly more »

Yah, yes, jumping in after the fact. Great Mr. Speaker. Thanks for the concern. Tell us how they got the guns Mr. Speaker. We know how they got the black powder to make the bombs. But..how did they ge more »

Comment on: Tsarnaev brothers appeared to have scant finances - Metro - The Boston Globe
Why haven't we heard where they got the guns? How did they get guns and ammunition since neither had a firearms license. I don't care how they lived or whether the state or the city of Cambridge was a more »

Comment on: Loss Tuesday night showed Celtics wonât be able to beat Knicks - Sports - The Boston Globe
Exactly: "We knew that". I listen to EEI's Michael Holley try to explain why the Celtics are a good team that could beat the Knicks. Salk, knows better. But, here is an example of a media talking head more »

Comment on: Red Sox humbled by Athletics - Sports - The Boston Globe
Need I add to the very accurate and diverse comments made thus far? Aceves is acid. Corrosive and nasty. Unfortunately, not to the other team. Get rid of him and bring in anybody who can actually pitc more »

Comment on: Knicks crush Celtics, take 2-0 lead in playoff series - Sports - The Boston Globe
Despite what MH and some others say and maybe even believe, this team cannot do it. Without Rondo, they have no leader. During the regular season, they couild get away with it now and then. But this i more »

It would appear there were many security lapses here. One wonders what is going to be the outcome if seriously trained, professional terroists get into the country. And it certainly seems that the sam more »

Comment on: Along route of Boston Marathon, grief and anger run deep - Metro - The Boston Globe
I feel that same sense of sadness. I know we will all get on and the Marathon will be run again next year. But, it is true that the carefree innocense of the day will be lost forever now. Security, al more »

Comment on: Miami Heat beat shorthanded Celtics, 109-101 - Sports - The Boston Globe
Please spare us. This team is done. The Knicks shoudl be able to cruise to an easy second round against this gimpy, inexperienced, unable to get it together without the big 3....team. Without Rondo in more »

Comment on: Red Sox bullpen is suddenly leaking - Sports - The Boston Globe
Come on guys..it's his bread and butter. However, the rest of us don't have to go along. It is early in the season. But, this is not an impressive team. There is a reason Hanrahan is here and not wher more »

Comment on: Wade Boggs wants Red Sox to retire his number - Sports - The Boston Globe
I'd rather see Dwight Evans up there any day over Mr. ME. There is no doubt Boggs has very good numbers. And is one of the top hitters the MLB has ever seen. But he was no Manny Ramirez...or was he? I more »

Comment on: Senators have gun deal to expand background checks - Nation - The Boston Globe
Over reaction from the left on this issue. We have background checks. We have the Brady Bill which was also supposed to reduce gun violence, but didn't. The guns used in Newtown were not illegal guns. more »
Another great addition to this year's team. Great.
