I would have said "power"

You should say "sex". (It's all biological, remember?) Power is the aphrodisiac, the lure, the colorful feathers, the medallions, the nest. The cortex serves its master well.

And yeah, it is your party. You've beating their drum in every election so far, trying to "pump.. them up". Watching you pimp Romney was quite a sight. I expect the same for the foreseeable future. Your version of "liberty" is not. It's just Zombie Reagan.

Defending the indefensible is an art form, isn't it? Sweet relativism...

The patent troll exists only because the patent system exists... You can't fix what is "broken" by design. It's time for complete utter abolition. And copyright too! Pure corruption, all of it...

Well, maybe the idea is that the vehicle can determine which obstacle is the softest and aim for that one, preserving the safety of the occupants, which should be its primary purpose, I guess.

Yeah, run for office...

First thing to remember is that humans are just as much a part of nature as anything else, merely the dominant species on the planet. I prefer patience.. Everything is still evolving, maybe even the laws of nature itself.

I guess we oughta just nuke the planet then.

Explanations, simple or complex, are useless to those who don't want to hear..

Your post is kinda funny when what I hear from you are accusations of being "simplistic".

Like many things, you won't understand until you see them through. Maybe you're just too busy...

Well, unless you hear all sides, you should remain skeptical. Too many people base their decisions on the source of the "evidence".

Don't try to "fathom" anything. Just turn off automatic updates, and you'll be a bit safer.

Marat/Sade can be hard to watch, but the story is largely true. And in both cases, the ending is perfect.

Precisely the same can be said for the original accusations made by your mass media.

"If you think this country's bad off now, just wait till I get through with it"

Replace ???? with zero all debts. Done.

In fact we should do that now anyway.
