Obama and science and of course fascist cronyism

Ron Paul is where its at. I really hope he runs. He wants to abolish the Federal Reserve and establish and honest money system. That is one of his major issues. I'd vote for him without hesitation. You know he would put a stop to your pay cuts with that policy.

He is just too old to be viable for the next election and he is too much of a fiscal consecrative to get the neocon/republican nomination. That said, he is just about the only one who told the truth during the primary; no one but a few wanted to hear it.

I don't think it would make any difference, if anything, a period of upheaval like that would cause the USD to drop internationally. I don't think the system could be changed at this point, there's too much invested in it working the way it does.

He doesn't need a nomination. People can vote for whoever they want to.

It HAS to be changed if anyone ever cares to improve the society in which they live.

Without getting into state to state technicalities yes, you are correct. I am talking about getting somebody like him involved in the big debates. He was stonewalled from several of the debates during the primary season. If he can't get on the TV or do better marketing of his message he simply will not and can't win.

It's inevitable that both sides of the political debate make excuses for their own broken promises, and hold the other side to standards their own candidates can't come close to living up to.

WTF?
Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

Who would you support in the coming 2012 election?

Sarah Palin, at this point anyway.

She needs to get on board with abolishing the Federal Reserve and establishing an honest money system. We need a radical shove to solid original American values. Abolishing the Fed is a major step to that goal.

Exactly what I said. I have seen both sides of US politics do this. The other side is always pilloried for lack of perfection, and the mistakes of ones own side are excused as political reality.

Now remember that Magic was going to take politics out of science and bring us all into a brave new world. Then realize that GE (who helped bring the 0 into power) is not into tidal or wave technology as a way of generating power. It also helps to know that Sarah Palin recommended both and that Alaska has a fair amount of coast line. Even more interesting is that 0, through executive fiat, is reducing the amount authorized by congress for tidal / wave technology.[^] Gosh, isn't it wonderful that we've a non-partisan in office now after that evil Bush regime?

;) One of the most ironic sights I've ever seen was some honkin' big (and pointless) pickup "truck" (can a prettified truck really be called a truck?) with a "Bushitler" bumber sticker.

Truly fascinating. Also of interest is this from the original McClatchy article: "Energy Department spokesman Tom Welch, however, said the Obama administration is asking for 10 times more for tidal and wave power than the Bush administration did."

so you classify a lie as a mistake thes days? I agree a lie is a mistake, but not in a context where someone ran on a platform of: science w/o politics, the end of politics as usual, ad nauseum.

but immaterial, since: 1) we were to have science w/o politics, 2) congress authorized a funding level and magic cut it. #2 is arbitrary and exceeds his authority (but it doesn't mattter because it would take a congressional challenge) #1 shows him to be an out and out liar and pure Chicago politician.

No, he's too libertarian.
Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

All of these alternatives are nonsensical wastes of tax payers money in any case. The entire damn concept is a lie.
