You can make this sure bet in Vegas and take the money to the bank. Obama is going to be a one term fizzle. We voted for a visionary man and he has now proven that he has been a pragmatist all along. He has failed to realize that truth is not a process to those that put him into office. His blatant decision to conduct healthcare debate in private, reneging on the promise to demand price negtiations on drugs, dropping the idea of reimportation of cheaper drugs and the bailing out of his banking friends on Wall Street are bales and not straws that broke the very backs of those that carried him into office. I am not saying that McCain would have been a better president, but I am saying that Obama has been naive to think that he can accommodate the power factions in Congress and still bring change to American politics. Where do we go from here? Let's start by making sure that not one member of Congress is reelected. |

Haiti is a disaster that happen in 1791 and has gone down hill ever since. Nothing in the country worked before the earthquake. Nothing will work in the future. The country is a failed experiment in government by a culture that is unmanageable. If Harvard wanted a model for study about a failed state, Haiti would be the mother of all failure. If one looks at any category to define the situation in Haiti - vital statistics - national economy - foreign trade - transportation - communications - education - health - environment - in every instance there is no place in the world any worse. President Obama is making a colossal mistake by saying that the United States will take responsibility to correct the situation in Haiti. Throwing money at this catastrophe is a fool’s errand. This is not the first disaster to inflict this country and will not be the last. It appears to me that the only solution for this debacle is to depopulate the country and give the land a thousand years to recover. |

Every diverse religion claims God’s unique acceptance. If that were not the case , then why even consider joining such a society? It is this religious primogeniture that seals the fate of trying to understand a supernatural relationship with a higher being. If there were truly a difference in a sect’s relationship with deity, then that deity would be less than omnipotent, because it would limit it’s ability to conserve it’s creation. Custom is a habitual practice that is accepted without reasoning. Practicing religion requires one to be unreasonable. If religion is primarily a custom, when you compare one to another , they are all the same. Yet each claims a unique status. If one draws a circle a million times, no matter how large or small, it is always a circle. How is it then possible to see one religion/circle as being unique? Is it acceptable to accept custom without reasoning? |
