Ok, I will stay on my toes.


And yes, I kinda wrote the first thing that came to my mind. It is a good rule though. But sticking to it doesnt do much good, though.

Good.  Stay on your toes.  Remember I'm an old fart.  I had the unenviable experience of living through the 70's and 80's in New England.  Got to see all those fighters screaming over my house to meet the Bear bombers coming over the pole.  As for the Golden Rule bit, don't worry, you just haven't thought it through far enough yet.

Well, yeah, that is even worse... Still, even the so-called democracy in the west has a lot of room for improvement.

Considering what I'm seeing from the East right now, I think I'd prefer the asylum.  I don't care to live under Russia part 2

I hope that the golden rule doesnt apply to masochists. I sure wouldnt like someone to whip me, or pull out my fingenails or something like that, hoping that I will do the same to him.

Well, as far as Im concerned, democracy means that we get to decide on what to do, how to do it, how things are, ect.
Not the thing that is usualy called democracy in the west, when it just basicly means that we get to choose on which lunatic should run the asylum (a government).

My theory is that Democracy gives you the freedom to do whatever you want to do  .  .  .  until it interferes with someone else's right to do whatever they want to do.  Think about it.  Do you have the right to kill ?  NO, because it interferes with the other person's right to live.  Do you have the right to steal ?  NO, because it interferes with someone else's right to work hard and earn those things.  Etc, etc, etc.  It's as simple as "The Golden Rule", do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

True I have to admit you make some good ponts.If we didn't have the Soviets on our side World War II we'd probaly be under the jackboot now. But Also Yes I agree democracy is a funny term.I think one side has more while another has less.

i can understand Russias position against NATO membership...cause NATO is Russias enemy!!! if they get to the boaderline of Russian territory then of course they are going to retaliate one way or another...


i dont believe things will escalate more than they are now...things will get resolved peacefully all in good time
[Jpz #1 fan] Friday, August 29, 2008 7:00:19 AM 
yes i agree the US has a very questionable history....

democracy its funny term isnt it...some say its the right to speak out others say its the right to basic needs...

lets not forget if the Soviets had not been on the allied side we would all be under Nazi domination right now...we surely must be greatful for that

It's hard to take sides. I would feel guilty having one of each in front of me. Sitting on a beach chair in the shade, looking at them both fighting for dominance would be heartwrenching.
Have you ever seen a Mango Margarita KILL a Screwdriver...
Absolute massacre.

Margarita VS Mojito: the NEW COLD WAR

[Palmer Griffiths] Sunday, August 24, 2008 7:19:02 PM 

I Just wanted to add a little more on this subject. What I'm about to say is not aimed at the entire American People.I have nothing against Americans, but those few who are on top of the Ivory Tower Like the Government and Big Business etc. Altough I find what's going on in that region of the World alarming the U.S. is claiming Russia has attacked and Invaded a soveriegn Country ..But what about the United States? They've done that sort of thing countless times in Latin American Countries and other nations around the Globe.They had Fulgencio Batista in power in Cuba who was corrupt as Well the Sha Of Iran who was put  in power and Henry Kissinger was quoted as saying " He's a Bastard,But he's our Bastard." They've installed Governments in Countries as long as it suited there domestic interests.Now they're coming to the aid of the Georgians? I didn't exactly see them do that when there was a Genocide going on in a place like Rwanda.I guess there was no Oil Reserves or other natural resources for Big Business to exploit. Just want to close off with what The Late George Carlin stated in his bit called The Owners Of this Country " You're not Free ! You're Owned.The owners of this Country they own you.They own all  the important Land they control and own the Major Media outlets and they have The Senate,Judges,Congress all in there back pocket.This Country was bought and paid for a long time ago.They got you by the Balls! It's a Big Exclusive Club and Guess what !..You and Me..We're not in it." This can be said for my country to and others as well.
