Don't confuse a general statement for a personal condemnation, and don't confuse a personal virtue for a general one.

His remark at the end was poorly chosen, but I think its intent was less to stir up controversy and more to highlight what we all saw this election. That is, racism lives on in a significant portion of the Caucasian population (and elsewhere). People admitted to it in surprising numbers during the general election.

You and I and many others may not be racist, but it's incorrect to assume that all people similar to us in color and hue are similar to us in virtue.

It isn't 1960, no, but even as we elect our first African-American president the almost entirely Caucasian senate and house stand as strong reminders that balance is not yet achieved. I wouldn't take it personally.

More importantly, he was selected because he was an important civil rights figure and this is an important moment in civil rights. That doesn't forgive him his poorly chosen words, but I don't believe it was bad judgment to pick him.

And I'm a WASP, so it's not like I don't have a reason to resent his remark.

Ironically the Fox News Stream worked extremely well for me. Not a single hiccup, no silly graphics or cuts to the anchors, and they were careful to avoid talking over speakers.

If you wish to give up on the country and our system of government that is your choice, but the kind of apathy you display is one among many attitudes that has brought us where we are today.

No one man can change things, yes, but ultimately Obama never claimed that he alone could fix everything. From the primaries until now he has emphasize how important it is that we the people stop spectating and start participating. If we do, change is possible.

How do you reconcile the following two statements?

However, I also make a point of stressing that Eve is also a game that you get out of it what you put into it.

...very small people who's lives practically revolve around the game...

In the first statement you imply that there is a direct connection between reward and effort in EVE. In the second statement you deride those who appear to be taking advantage of the implication in the first statement.

Fun Fact: They already did that. If I recall correctly the Battalion Wars series is an offshoot of Advance Wars, in 3D.
