But Malagent, why are you writing about this?

A: It’s incredibly amusing, kind of like someone walking along and smacking the 41 baboons who signed this letter every time someone mentions it on a blog or in the tradition . Continue reading ‘Lettergate: Rush 2,100,100 - Harry Reid Zero’

Update: As I’ve predicted the Officers involved in this incident have been cleared and are returning to duty. Take a poll here.

I’ve posted a few videos on YouTube concerning the incident. Now I knew I would not be popular with my position on the incident. After all the majority of the users are young , many of which love a good theory. At least that’s been my experience. However, I was astonished at the response I have received. In addition to the obligatory “your a fascist”, “troll alert”, “you’re part of Skull & Bones” and “you’re a Bush lover” comments, I’ve also received a few dozen messages threatening my life. Now of course I don’t take these seriously, mainly due to the all caps and mangling of the English language.

Insult 40Anyway, I’ll get to the point. Amongst all of the controversy, insults and now death threats I have had some productive conversations with a rare few.Insult 041 Some of whom have requested more information or explanations of the information I have presented. Rather then continue to try and provide a condensed version that fits withing the 500 character limit of the YouTube comments that also wont allow URLs to be posted, I have decided to simply post what I can here. With any luck someone will find it useful.

Additional information relevant to a few viewers and a few people participating in the discussion (comments)… Continue reading ‘Critical thinking and the Andrew Meyer Taser Incident’

Oh how quickly Americans, particularly forget. I remember giving a speech criticizing Bush Sr. for not going to with - now I have found the video of that speech here.

Here’s Gore in 1992, telling America that George H. W. Bush needed to rush to in taking out ’s -linked, -seeking . I’m pretty sure this substantially proves that will blindly follow whatever supports their preconceived ideas, i.e “I support Gore because the says he’s smarter,” when all along they support Gore regardless. The knee-jerk reaction is to always see what supports our ideas and to downplay that which contradicts them. You can’t reason with a bigot; no matter what the issue is, you’re darned if you do and you’re darned if you don’t.

My response to that is this collection of quotes from a few people.
