    "Republic" does not mean "democracy"

    It seems that Venezuela and the US are playing a little "tit for tat" expelling each respective diplomatic representatives... Nice build up for the planned November Venezuela-Russia joint naval exercise. Are everyone going just nuts?

    Who is this dumb bitch that McCain picked as VP Nominee?

    Hehe, I ate fish brains when I was a little kid, my parents said it was good for me... yuck. Testicles and even penises are being eaten all over the world - especially in Asia. Brains are being eaten quite a lot too, mostly as filling into hot dogs etc., but many cannibals liked to think of...

    Ebert on Palin: Two Thumbs Down

    Pabst, there is a saying "even a broken clock is right two times per day". That means that in each separate case you should apply reasoning, and not be dogmatic or simplistic. For instance you can build trust on a specific issue, but have no trust on other issues - even differing with...

    Russa Invades Georgia - Full Scale Invasion

    Broco, just like in any type of chess - there are "forced plays" - where you force your opponent to do something, because you are threatening him. Those are closed systems constructed for game and fun, but some people take this simplistic bivalent ruleset and apply it to all their thinking...

    Who is this dumb bitch that McCain picked as VP Nominee?

    Some cultures believe in eating testicles of animals to become more "manly", and other cultures believed (some still do) that eating the brains of enemies and animals will make you smarter and more like them. :D

    "Republic" does not mean "democracy"

    Fundamental to any society is the notion of "trust" - actually fundamental to any sustainable system like peace, democracy, environment, economy, family, work, security and so on. What we are increasingly seeing is the erosion of trust in all aspects of society, observable as the level of...

    Interview of Palin: Judge for Yourself

    Exactly! The conservative candidacy is a continuation of a "little intelligent leader", first Bush then McCain; which has the consequence of de facto power transfer to his counsel! Palin can answer on her feet and put together argumentation, but she seems very indoctrinated and...

    "Republic" does not mean "democracy"

    A republic does not implicate a democracy. A republic means a state ruled by the people, or just some of the people. Conservatives would like this regime to be a rule by them, and traditionally this has been wealthy families entrenching their grip...

    McCain voted 90% with Bush. So what can we expect in McCains' Presidency?

    FortuneTeller, which is the first administration to start diplomatic talks and plan diplomatic representation in Iran after the break with them? I doubt John McCain can "get it up" nowadays. He will croak on a blue pill...

    Interview of Palin: Judge for Yourself

    "In a very dangerous world"... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_fear I strongly object to this aggressive outlook on the universe. It is fundamentally wrong and polarizing everything around you as being "against you". That means one is a simplistic darwinist or just plain ignorant...

    The Truth Hurts

    Seems like the US economy is slipping more and more into some variation of a "planned economy by bandaids"... spinning out of control. A consensus of reason seems to be forming about the unsustainable current regime.
