Can you say > "self-absorbed"? I knew you could :-) I read more about it and found out that the police shut down the thing going on in Canada, not Ann. Ann actually wants to press forward. Maybe that makes her more of a bitch than I thought she was originally. I dunno. Some people just hit me that way. "Bitch..." You know the type. Doesn't mean I stick to the view, but sometimes it hits. > It might have been politic to let her put her foot in it and then arrest > her for hate-mongering. Of course, her whole argument falls apart as she > is trying to deny a much larger group of people THEIR right to free speech > in a democratic society. Yes, having your voice heard on a planet of many is hard to do. Unfortunately people who are "important enough" to get on TV get a lot more attention than someone who lives in a trailer in Mississippi. The guy living in Mississippi would be able to say more about what's needed than some career politician with a lousy tie. I don't think anybody can deny that "more money" makes the living of life better. I know people like to parrot that "money can't buy happiness". I think that's propaganda. I know there are wealthy people who have lost their happiness. Also, as someone who has never had a lot of money, I can't see how having more of it could make me unhappy, or prevent me from being happier. The lack of enough money in my own life has lead to all kinds of depressing things, like not being able to buy all the latest video games. Video games certainly make me happy. There are some I want now, and not being able to get them makes me unhappy. Or not being able to pay the bills I ran up going into debt for the necessities (like car repairs) I needed just to keep going to work every day. Not having enough money starts you out in a position of discontent to begin with. At least having plenty of money to spend on the things you need and want keeps that aspect of life (the lack of money) from making you unhappy. Money didn't buy happiness for one person who perhaps had a remarkable story. But it has turned into a religion. You can't buy happiness with cash, but who wants to order happiness and pay the bill for it? In that case, it's the trip toward happiness that is more fun: spending the money, and using what you've bought.

I think that's as it should be in a > free society. Well, there are things I'd /like/ to say, but don't say publicly because doing so makes one look suspicious. I could say that I wish a big swarm of tornadoes would come blow all of Washington DC out into the ocean, including all the politicians who work there. While the net result would be positive for the country and the world, the method of removing Washington DC is the one point that's hard to post online without a twinge of fear, unless I use some wild natural event, like a swarm of tornadoes. I certainly don't think it would be a bad thing if all the so-called "politicians" ended up out of office. And even if I suggested some "militaristic way" of accomplishing it, I don't want any readers to actually feel like I have the means or the will to pull it off. The whole thing these days isn't even interesting enough to make me sick, to paraphrase Cher in "The Witches of Eastwick". All I want is a peaceful life to contemplate, think about things, and just spend my time alone. Joining some bandwagon full of scraggly, bearded Americans who are turning themselves into terrorists is just so flaming stupid, not only because it proves that one is a parrot, but because there's no point. Hell, if everybody would stop trying to kill other people, we'd all live in peace! I really don't give a shit one way or the other. I just go by what it looks like people want: freedom (for themselves, not others), and what politicians are not providing: freedom (because they can't when people can't ask for freedom without also adding exceptions to freedom). I do feel muted in that I don't always feel like I can write exactly what I think for fear of being investigated as a possible terrorist. Of course, I don't agree with the Muslims or Islamics, either, so I have nothing to gain by joining their, even more ridiculous and stupid side of life. The only thing positive I can say about Afghanistan is that they're growing poppies for the world. YAY Afghanistan! I also feel sorry for drug cartels who must hire and maintain armies just to fill a hole in the market that the USA doesn't like. You'll notice I kind of danced in this message. It's not one I'm totally comfortable posting, but I'm gonna hit send anyway. Surely any chucklehead who thinks I'm interesting enough to investigate will see my thousands of other usenet posts that have nothing to do with their little 3-ring circus.

Not what the news is reporting: CTV (aka Conservative Televisual Vortex): Free speech advocates say university administrators should be embarrassed that protesters forced right-wing firebrand Ann Coulter to cancel her appearance at the University of Ottawa... .... Conservative political activist Ezra Levant, who spoke on behalf of the organizers on Tuesday evening, said "it would be physically dangerous for Ann Coulter to proceed with this event." .... Police eventually showed up to the scene and blocked the door to the building, but Hamamdjian said she doubted whether the combination of protesters and disorganization actually constituted "a physical risk to Ann Coulter." ---- The police would have shown up upon a communication to them that there was a threat to Ann Coulter, which would have come from her people. -- "The officer corps will forgive anything they can understand, which makes intelligence the only sin."

But how do you draw the line between bringing something to people's attention, and hate mongering? I mean, if something is going on that people would hate if they knew about it, then letting them know about it will make them hate it. Isn't that a good thing? Why should it be illegal? I'm not talking about hating people as individuals, but about hating situations. I mean, the national news has been hate mongering with the healthcare bill. > The heinous duplicity of these dexter master baiter organizations is > that they promote her bile spewing as free speech and deny entrance to > Canada to George Galloway on the gounds that he brought humanitarian > assistance to people in dire need. Yes, watching what the officials do in response to the movements of people who do nice things for others is very revealing of how nasty government can be. And then look at all these "closed-door meetings" in which cameras are not allowed in American government. I can just see someone saying, "Let's get this done. Keep the media out or the whole process will stall because the people would hate what we're doing if they knew about it."

Our Conservative government is a fine example of just such nasty behaviour. Luckily they are not in the majority and their situation is far from secure as 65% of Canadians do not want them in power. -- "The officer corps will forgive anything they can understand, which makes intelligence the only sin."

My impression of Coulter is that she probably doesn't believe a word of what she says publicly. It's just her way of making a buck, basically. There are plenty more around like her who do the same thing, in completely other non-political spheres as well. > to me, the word '****' was invented just for coulter. It's a great word with a lot of impact (much like 'faggot', IMO). But I'm really quite partial to ****s, myself.

I've always considered myself to be a conservative liberal. I have leanings in both directions with no truly extreme views. For example, I do believe that a certain amount of socialism/social responsibility is fundamental to a functioning society, but I do not believe in supporting deliberate freeloaders. ;-) I also feel very strongly that self-defense is a basic human right, and nobody should be deprived of it out of sheer paranoia... But, to each their own! That's also a basic right. -- Peace! Om Web Albums: <http://picasaweb.google.com/OMPOmelet> "We're all adults here, except for those of us who aren't." --Blake Murphy |

We far left people realize far better than you think that money is wasted by the right on things like military expenditure and bailouts for big companies and economic sectors. If you think people on the far left are wasteful you a. have not met any people on the far left, and b. you have been believing what the right says about the left which as instructive as believing what the Senate said about the Caesars...which is why we have such a bad opinion of the ones the Senate did not like because it only said bad things, and not necessarily true either. -- "The officer corps will forgive anything they can understand, which makes intelligence the only sin."

There's often work that these people are willing to do, but the time required for the amount of money earned is so crappy that actually getting involved becomes depressing. If the rewards were greater and more equally distributed, there would be more jobs for people to do, and more interesting things for people to do to make a living. People in general would have so much that the few "freeloaders" there are wouldn't even be given a second thought.

I wholeheartedly agree. Tangentially, I recall one Usenet discussion where it was asserted that I had no standing to criticize the overly-restrictive nature of Canada's anti-free-speech laws because I am American. The fact is, national boundaries mean very little to me, they don't affect my concepts of what personal freedoms people deserve, and they certainly do not define where I will advocate for personal freedom. National borders, and ultimately any concept of citizenship or nationalism, are largely fictions created by right-wingers. I have to play along with the system of national jurisdictions so that I can function within that system, but I do not have to worship it. If national sovereignity gives some right-wing faction within a given country the ability clamp down on free speech locally, it's still my business, because the people whose rights are being infringed are still human beings, of which I am still one.
