    @ xufapemu

    Trolling: v.,n. 1. A series of electronic postings designed to attract predictable responses or flames.

    Hunting is on topic because Joan mentioned it in her article.

    What Obama said is also on topic.

    Is your argument that because I am somehow a minority in this thread that I am a troll. What I have seen is an effort to silence me, even though I am on topic, simply because I have not agreed with the general consensus that what Obama said is correct.

    That people have a desire to flame me does not make me a troll. May I suggest instead that it makes them thin-skinned -- or has it come to the point that no difference of opinion concerning Obama is tolerated and that Obama must in all instance be issued only praise?
