My cat Truffles loves Chomsky. He's very pro-kitten, or so she tells me from texting with him.
P.S. Anybody who thinks that ANY Health Care Bill will do ANYTHING but further screw over the American public is DREEEEEEAAAAAMMMMMING!! In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
Let's recite the rules of US governance:
I can't answer for the rest of it tho'. keep to the Fen Causeway
Are you sure you haven't been brainwashed by the anti-HC Bill lot? Has your cat been chanting messages at you? Ad astra per aspera
'Even the most radical conservative can agree with Noam Chomsky on at least one thing. "No one in their right mind wants Iran to develop nuclear weapons." But to Chomsky, nonproliferation requires reciprocal action, rather than international condemnation. ... Chomsky takes a pragmatic view of international relations. His conclusion is that Iran is developing nuclear weapons out of a rational fear for its national safety because of the systematically threatening posture of the United States and Israel. Noam Chomsky speaks in Harvard's Memorial Church on Saturday, March 6th, Chomsky critiqued the foreign policy of President Obama '91 and explained the historical reasons that Iran would perceive a need to develop nuclear weapons. "If they're not developing a nuclear deterrent, they are crazy." The problem, said Chomsky, is the defiant and hypocritical insistence of the United States on holding the constant threat of military action over Iran as a punishment for its noncompliance with United Nations mandates. "Hostile actions of the United States and its Israeli client are a major factor in Iran's decisions of whether or not to develop a nuclear deterrent." ... Chomsky, when speaking about activism and civil disobedience, stressed the need for determined persistence. "You're not going to win tomorrow. You are going to have a lot of defeats, but you have to keep at it." http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2010/03/12-0

The truffles are on hold. Things ... i.e. unemployment, public disturbances over unemployment, crime resulting from unemployed people, etc. ... have to get much worse and in the MSM before I'll approach some gutless Democrat fretting reelection. No need to hurry. No one else would ever propose my idea so I'll stand pat with my cards.
P.S. again. Who said Izzy isn't allowed to have here opinion? I'm just saying that after the "What voters THOUGHT they were getting by electing Obama" and "What they REALLY got with him in the White House" they might wise up to the lay of the land. Oh well, bend over America! Here comes health care reform! In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
THE Twank:
I avoid Izzy at all costs these days; don't need the Powers That Be giving me nasty 2 ratings for no good reason.
Oh, so she's a Power That Be, so you won't be defending your opinion in discussion with her. Very courageous.
I'll add that Powers That Be are necessary to give you 2s, and, on occasion, purely delete your sometimes outrageous comments. No editor has ever warned you "for no good reason".
As metavision knows, she who rightly objects to macho discourse disrespectful to women.
