[quote]can't remember when I've agreed with you so much on any issue but this is exactly right. In fact, most people are NOT interested in truth anyhow. Opinion is much more the normative these days. [/quote] and yet you yourself offer poll results to indicate what? common sense vs the scientific method? popular opinion vs logic? belief in what cannot be proven vs objective analysis of physical evidence? roughly 100 years ago, belief in cyclops as decribed in other anc

a lil more than 80% of india's 1.15 billion people may believe in multiarmed female and multicolored elephant dieties--a number that's equal to nearly 66% of our entire population. what's more, they've been believin in them for several thousand years before the patriarch of the religion which spawned your own began hearing a voice in his head telling him to kill his son. truth is truth...notta popularity contest

all of the above--serious tho it may be--has little to do with the point i hoped to make with his one. anyone who's taken time to check out their articles' referrals has some idea of ju's scope and range. in certain respects it's analagous to a long gone phenomenon recalled by the wall of voodoo's 'mexican radio'. that song celebrated broadcast stations located just across the border from restrictive fcc wattage limits. under the right conditions they owned the

[quote]He had nothing to do with the Bali bombing. He offered to inform in 2000, three years before the bombing took place. That's why he wasn't convicted of several hundred counts of murder or conspiracy to commit murder.[/quote] if there's evidence this guy somehow managed despite himself to successfully inflict injury or death on anyone or damage to property, it's not easy to locate. same goes for proof he didn't hurt anyone. ditto for his claimed offers of information

[quote]We don't respect laws or anything.[/quote] the heart, soul and bedrock of our legal system is the principle of habeus corpus. governments claiming the power to restrict, deny or violate habeus corpus are collectively recognized and referred to as tyrannies. whether his assertions are true or he was intending to commit terrorist attacks, australia clearly screwed up badly by ignoring him. after his arrest, australia did nothing more nor le

Reply to Thoughts on President Obama's news conference in Politics JoeUser Forums

[quote]non-sequitor[/quote] not at all. chronologically obama follows in the footsteps of an administration infamous for choreographing whatever press conferences it couldn't squirm outta over the past 8 years. not only has ari fliescher copped to it, he's explained how and why it was done (be on message or off the grid). on second consideration, choreography is really only apt if we expand its definition to include stupid pet tricks (thus inadvertantly providing eric bo

Reply to Is he right or wrong? Obama's $500k salary cap in Politics JoeUser Forums

[quote]Jubak's take.[/quote] hell i'm all for long sentences and aggressive asset forfeitures for past wrongdoing but that ain't likely to happen. any cap that can be implemented--even a far too generous $500k version--is better than nothing. reducing the amount to the point where none of em could afford to commission loophole & workaround development teams would be much more effective.
