Antipathy and Social Fallout

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 13:26:03 +0000

I was reading George Soros’ Age of Fallibility: Consequences of the War on Terror. He mentions that one of the earliest factors that eventually led to the decline of the US as a superpower, was that they stopped seeking truth. They became what he terms a “feel good society”. This led me on to the [...]

Obama to revive the injured eagle?

Thu, 05 Jun 2008 07:34:11 +0000

Obama won the democratic nomination sometime yesterday. Not that many are surprise considering his strong surge as the the campaign grew longer. Some say that his chances of winning the presidential race is slim at best, considering that the Hilary probably has damaged the view of the neutrals against voting Democrat by hanging on so [...]

Obama’s staff even got her to make a counter-attack on his YouTube page. Hilary got p3wned. Original ‘3 a.m.’ Ad: The Colbert Report also created one joint effort for Obama and [...]

Guess who will be President

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 13:42:29 +0000

Obama-mania is getting out of hand Much has been made of the religious tenor of Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. Reports of women weeping and swooning — even of an audience applauding when The One cleared his proboscis (blew his nose for you mortals) — have become frequent events in the heavenly realm of Obi-Wan Obama. His rhetoric, meanwhile, [...]

06.02.2008 A Daily Show with Jon Stewart

Tue, 12 Feb 2008 11:51:40 +0000

Segments that are laugh-a-second-worthy. Jon Stewart has been ad-libbing on the show since his return on 7th Jan 2008 (he is a member of WGA so he is not allowed to write for the show). HE IS SO FULL OF WIN. Still so darn witty.
