State of the Union, swirling down the tubes?
#46
RE: State of the Union, swirling down the tubes?
Continuing with the prodding then, did the same cabal (for lack of a worse name) put Obama in power? Were old what's his name and the she-bear Palin the designated losers, a la Gore et al.

I would disagree a little with dude in the video, although unless that's you, (I think you should make your own points, or your own videos) about the greatest threat part. Yeah being Anti stupidity, ignorance, and bigotry was, 4 years ago, kind of anti-america if you, yes again, defined american as such. Nowadays it's more complex, but still the same people making the same problems.

I would think it is in fact the criminals in charge that pose the biggest threat. But I guess that depends on semantics. Do the war hawks that use DU munitions en masse, hopefully at least knowing that it's radioactive spread is global and uncontrollable, do it because they want to, or because they believe in god? I think those very hawks using that very "technology" (constuctive use of industrial toxic waste, see flouride) is in fact the most dangerous and destructive thing on the planet. Then Ebola, or some mar burg phylovirus. Then monsanto's terminator gene, or some other man made (read monsanto-made) ecological collapse. Then a real ecological collapse. Then dystopic world government. My list kind of doesn't include such a broad and altogether un-evil group as 'people who believe in god' gasp. People have a lot of reasons for doing a lot of things, but I don't see that what a poor white trash Carolinian that never goes more than 30 miles from whence they were birthed in their pitiful lives, believes in, having any threat towards some guy in London.

The only way it sticks is if you think that the reason there is DU, and global warming, and deepwater, and the war on terror, and the war on drugs, is belief in god. And I think that is preposterous.

Thanks Mini,
