China wants one world currency?

China wants one world currency?: "Is world government a bad thing? What am I missing here? Yeah, we had a 700 billion dollar bailout, but the week before we spent 600 billion on defense. Why doesn't anybody complain about that? Some people would lose under world government. I just don't feel like those would be our best people. Our best people would gain. We have fifty states. Just think if the 200 countries of the world got along like the fifty states. There would be a lot less killing. What's more important than that?"

Hey, Sarah Palin, there are real American heroes, even here in New York City

Hey, Sarah Palin, there are real American heroes, even here in New York City: ".
This is not just the end of one of the dumbest, meanest Republican campaigns in history. It is also the most divisive. It is no longer liberals vs. conservatives, one ideology against another, one party against the other.
It is Us vs. Them.
If you listen closely to this coded talk about small-town America and small-town values, you wonder how someone like Taylor - if he had been following this campaign instead of fighting for his country - wouldn't have started to get the idea that he was somehow one of Them."

Let Freedom Ring » Blog Archive » Obama-Biden Whine Because Reporter Asked Real Questions: "You want tough questions? Let's ask McCain why his crowd has gone off the deep end. Let's argue about impeachment. Really hasn't the GOP gotten rather rascist? What about his affair? Shouldn't he really have gone to jail for the keating five? How about his wife? His brother? How about the greed he encourages? Are rough questions really what we want? Let's get the National Enquirer front and center. It's called desperation. It's a scorched earth policy. Is this what you want to be remembered for? Will that really help you in the long run? Conservatives have a long row to hoe. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

George W. Bush has done us all a favor | Capitol Hill Blue

George W. Bush has done us all a favor | Capitol Hill Blue: "As crazy as it sounds, I believe we now have none other than George W. Bush to thank for most of Mr. Obama's surging popularity.
With eight years of Bush and his neocon Cabal running around the world starting endless 'holy wars' based on non-existent WMDs, Americans have now gotten a good, 'up close and personal' chance to see what a Theocracy looks like.
That is, over the last eight years, the Republican Party has done us all an odd -- if unintentional -- service by showing us in practice exactly what the Founding Fathers feared most and tried to prevent when they created our nation.
What we've been witnessing is nothing less than the Republican Party's complete takeover by the evangelical religious right and their unabashed attempt to turn the United States of America into a Christian Theocracy."

Israel's Not-So-Future Perfect - by Leon Hadar

Israel's Not-So-Future Perfect - by Leon Hadar: "In some respects, Israel's ties with the United States are starting to resemble the relationship between the old political and economic elites and the Jewish community in Europe during the nineteenth century. As Hannah Arendt observed in her classic study of European anti-Semitism, it was the erosion in the power of those elites – and their growing inability to protect the Jews of Europe – that sealed the latter's fate. Then, new and angry social classes and political players turned their frustration against the group they associated with the hated status quo – a group that was also very vulnerable.
Today, a similar scenario could take place on an international scale, when a weaker and less confident United States would be under pressure at home and abroad to reduce its global commitments. This would leave Israel, the weakest link, vulnerable to attacks not only from Arab and Muslim nations, but from other new anti-status quo powers."

YouTube - Bachmann: "Not All Cultures Are Equal"

YouTube - Bachmann: "Not All Cultures Are Equal": "Can this woman be more insulting? It's her tribe that needs to be diminished and treated as not equal. I feel sorry for her. She has a rough road ahead. The reason she got this way, however, is that she has had it too good for too long. She now thinks she deserves it all because she is just superior to other people.
