Let's Be Honest Once And For All

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 20:51:15 GMT

Let's be honest once and for all. We don't elect presidents, only commanders-in-chief.

at the end of the day the majority of Americans are essentially war-willing

Commander-in-Chief of this mythical "Free World" we have self-determined to lead.

we seem to go along with those in our midst who advocate world dominance. One gets the feeling at times that we might be afraid that our feast as glutton-consumers might cease without this predatory foreign policy.

If there is one thing that defines us as a people, as a nation, it is our unwillingness to impeach Bush.

Only a grass roots level denunciation and excommunication of the neocons,

will allow Washington to formulate a necessary policy of détente before our nation can be trusted by the world at large.

A new administration without the prior cleansing of the president's office

will be seen as more of the same – an unrepentant and unashamed continuation of empire

But that's not who we are. Or, at least, let's pray we are not.

Israeli Prime Ministers OKs the construction of hundreds of new homes in the occupied West Bank

clipper's remarks: I just don't get it. As a Jew, and a human being, I try so hard to continue my support for Israel, but when the prime minister talks about peace negotiations announces that he is approving the construction of 750 news homes in the occupied West Bank, which is in violation of the so-called "Road Map," I can't help but wonder what this government's real intentions are.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has approved the renewed construction of hundreds of an estimated 750 new homes in the West Bank settlement of Givat Ze'ev near Jerusalem, the Housing Ministry said Sunday.

The project approved for the Agan Ayelot neighborhood of Givat Ze'ev drew criticism from the Palestinian Authority over Israel's commitment to the peace process.

The prime minister's spokesman said the project was in line with the state's current policy on construction in existing settlements.

"The project was approved by previous governments, and Olmert approved its resumption because it meshes with government policy," he said.

Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said the decision to build new housing

in Givat Zeev raised doubts about Israel's commitment to peace talks.

"It seems to me the Israelis are determined to put a stick in the wheel of negotiations," he said. "It will undermine the U.S. effort to revive the negotiations."

Hippie Punching

If there's one thing I've realized over the past few years is that hippies are not being punched quite enough, and I think the recent incident with Berkeley and the Marines shows the problem of not enough hippie punching.

So what has led to this dearth in hippie punching? Breakdown in family structure? Loss of prayer in school? Increasing childhood obesity? Prevalence of non-violent videogames? Whatever the reason, I think we need to spend more time telling the next generation the importance of striking hippies in the face with a fist. No functional society has survived hippies running around unpunched, and America will be similarly doomed if we don't change our ways.

Our military is overseas killing terrorists -- the violent form of the hippie -- so they can't be here punching hippies for us. We have to do that ourselves.

Doomsday cult calls credit cards satanic

A Russian doomsday cult sheltering in a bunker say credit cards and food packaging bar codes are satanic, the official negotiating the release of children from the group said on Monday.

Around 30 followers, including four children, from across Russia and neighboring Belarus met last October and barricaded themselves into a hillside to escape an apocalypse their preacher says is looming in either April or May.

"They have burned their passports and say that all plastic (credit) cards and strip codes on food packaging are the work of Satan," he told reporters.

He said progress was slow but local authorities were negotiating with the group to leave their refuge.

Local residents said the bunker was a pre-revolutionary convent, with a well, a kitchen and areas for sleeping and praying.

"Pin-the-Tail-on-the-Antichrist”

Sat, 05 Apr 2008 03:33:13 GMT

clipped by: wiccantexan

Clip Source: urbanlegends.about.com

Description: Email rumor
Circulating since: March 2008
Status: Downright silly

Summary: Email rumor claims charismatic U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama is the Antichrist prophesied in the New Testament

The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal.... the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA??

Comments: Barack Obama, the Antichrist? This would have to count as the ultimate political smear. I mean, accusing a politician of accepting bribes or cheating on taxes is one thing; labeling him the "Seven-Headed Beast of Revelation" (a.k.a. the "Wicked One," "False Prophet," "Beast from the Abyss," etc.) is candidate bashing on an apocalyptic scale.

Child Genius at Oxford Becomes Prostitute

clipper's remarks: What a waste.

Clip Source: www.foxnews.com

A child prodigy with a talent in mathematics that won her a spot at Oxford at the age of 13 somehow found her way into prostitution.

Sufiah Yusof, who calls herself Shilpa Lee, advertises her body on an Internet sex site, charging 130 pounds an hour or $258.

Yusof and two siblings won university places in their teens but she ran away at age 15 with claims of pressure from her parents.

"It is all desperately heartbreaking," a friend of Yusof said. "With her amazing brain she should be able to make money any way she wants. But instead, her life spiraled completely out of control."

Yusof describes herself as a "sexy, smart student" who prefers "older gentlemen" and offers services every day from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Yusof claims her father was "controlling and bullying," which led her to ending the relationship with her family.

What is Existential Depression?

What is Existential Depression?

Clip Source: psychcentral.com

When people talk about depression, sometimes they refer to different types based upon what they think may have caused their depression. One such possible cause is existential in nature, that is, a person ends up questioning his or her life, death or meaning of life, and by doing so, lapses into depression.

According to existentialism, a specific type of philosophy, humans are driven to meaning in their lives not by a specific type of deity or god, or by an outside authority, but internally, through our own choices, desires and pursuits. Humans are entirely free, and, therefore, entirely responsible for their own happiness or misery. It is up to each one of us to create the meaning which drives our life, whether it be through work, hobbies, charity, religion, relationships, offspring, family, or something else.

Existential depression may occur when a person comes face to face with these kinds of issues of life, death, freedom and the meaning of their life.

THIS is McCain's "Spiritual Advisor?"

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 20:28:46 GMT

clipper's remarks: "Parsley claims that Islam is an "anti-Christ religion" predicated on "deception." The Muslim prophet Muhammad, he writes, "received revelations from demons and not from the true God. And he emphasizes this point: "Allah was a demon spirit." Parsley does not differentiate between violent Islamic extremists and other followers of the religion"
Parsley, who refers to himself as a "Christocrat," is no stranger to controversy. In 2007, the grassroots organization he founded, the Center for Moral Clarity, called for prosecuting people who commit adultery. In January, he compared Planned Parenthood to Nazis. In the past Parsley's church has been accused of engaging in pro-Republican partisan activities in violation of its tax-exempt status."

Clip Source: www.motherjones.com

Senator John McCain hailed as a spiritual adviser an Ohio megachurch pastor who has called upon Christians to wage a "war" against the "false religion" of Islam with the aim of destroying it.

McCain, with Parsley by his side at the Cincinnati rally, called the evangelical minister a "spiritual guide."

In this work, Parsley decries the "spiritual desperation" of the United States, and he blasts away at the usual suspects: activist judges, civil libertarians who advocate the separation of church and state, the homosexual "culture" ("homosexuals are anything but happy and carefree"), the "abortion industry," and the crass and profane entertainment industry. And Parsley targets another profound threat to the United States: the religion of Islam.

In fact, I will tell you this: I do not believe our country can truly fulfill its divine purpose until we understand our historical conflict with Islam

Parsley is not shy about his desire to obliterate Islam.

Will the Democratic Party apologize for slavery?

Before the Civil War, the Democrat Party was united in its support for slavery. After the war, Democrats founded the Ku Klux Klan, established Jim Crow Laws, and repeatedly defeated anti-lynching and other federal legislation that became necessary in order to dismantle Democrat-created segregation in South.

There is a saying – “God cannot change the truth.”

My critique on Israel's contemporary political and military leaders corresponds to my critique on the racists, hatemongers, and pencil gangsters on the other side.

Obviously, clips like this attract bluebottles.

Clipmarks user yanceducat's comments on this clip are a clear appeal for committing further crimes against humanity.
Such appeals are criminal in themselves.
I state as a fact that Clipmarks is also being used for criminal acts of incendiarism.

Squirrels have bitten to death a stray dog which was barking at them in a Russian park, local media report.

Passers-by were too late to stop the attack by the black squirrels in a village in the far east, which reportedly lasted about a minute.

They are said to have scampered off at the sight of humans, some carrying pieces of flesh.

"They literally gutted the dog," local journalist Anastasia Trubitsina told Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper.

Komosmolskaya Pravda notes that in a previous incident this autumn chipmunks terrorised cats in a part of the territory.

Report: Jimmy Carter to Meet With Hamas Leader in Syria

NEW YORK CITY — Former President Jimmy Carter is reportedly preparing an unprecedented meeting with the leader of Hamas, an organization that the U.S. government considers one of the leading terrorist threats in the world.

The State Department has designated Hamas a "foreign terrorist organization," and some groups hold Meshal personally responsible for ordering the kidnapping of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack once said of the prospect of meeting with Meshal, "That's not something that we could possibly conceive of."

“It’s about par for the course from President Carter, demonstrating a lack of judgment typical of what he does," said John Bolton, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. "To go to Syria to visit Hamas at this point is just an ill-timed, ill-advised decision on his part."

Whatever God does, I accept that as good.

Web 2.0: Opening up, or dumbing down?

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 08:57:51 GMT

clipped by: wildcat
clipper's remarks: The aggregated "wisdom of the crowd," epitomized by Google and Wikipedia, is rife with opinion, misinformation, and lies because Web 2.0 creates an "environment where anyone can say anything," Keen argued. And that's "a bad thing for the cultural producers, the creative class,"

Clip Source: physorg.com

Are Google, Wikipedia, YouTube, and other Web 2.0 giants the scourge of American culture, laying waste to its 20th-century institutions and dumbing down society?

Or is the Internet’s latest incarnation a cultural liberator, unlocking the long-suppressed artistic energies of the masses and nurturing democracy?

That depends on whether you’re Andrew Keen, author of the recent book The Cult of the Amateur: How the Internet Is Killing Our Culture (Doubleday), or Paul Duguid, a linguist and co-author of The Social Life of Information (Harvard Business School Press).

Opening the sharp, witty exchange, Nunberg observed: “When the Web was built, everyone had these enthusiastic hopes for it, and then there turned out to be all these problems — from pornography to fraud to defamation to plagiarism to just plain unreliable information. It’s as if we thought we were going to build the New Jerusalem and we wound up with something a lot more like the present one.”
