Didn’t Jay and the Americans do a song called “Come a Little Bit Closer” that was a how to to keep out this kind of crap? I hope he gets a chance to use his new educational experience. He always seemed like a decent guy.

Haiti's first move after gaining independence was tracking down and murdering anyone who looked white or even part white. That worked out pretty well except for the part about the rest of the civilized world wanting them to pay some sort of annual reparations as a ticket for reopening any trade.

They still use that as an excuse as to why they are impoverished two centuries later.

Their second move was to invade and annex the Dominican Republic. That didn't work out so well either.

Not at all. I am involved in another charitable medical project in the DR.

Mr Ortiz has his own and I was given a tour at Cedimat.

David Ortiz Childrens Fund

Do you still consider him a "wide load?"

Big Papi is married, has two children, and he appears/appeared to be a man of genuine Catholic faith.

I hope he wasn’t screwing around on his wife. Sigh.....

Big Papi needs to leave the sh*thole Dominican Republic ASAP and never go back. If he’s enraged a drug lord, it’s only a matter of time before the drug lord tries to have Big Papi killed again.

I think the Red Sox sent a plane to bring him back to the states.
