All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. - Arthur Schopenhauer
There are certain revelations which many of us will now be aware of, that are not only self apparent, but to think otherwise seems ridiculous. Just as the Earth is round, murder is bad, and George Bush is an idiot, they seem like universal truths to us now. If only others could be convinced of the logic!The Earth is Finite, Infinite Growth is ... read more »

This is one of the most disgusting things I've seen in a while. This is an interview, or more like a verbal bashing, between a host named Thaddeus Matthews, and his guest Charlotte Bergmann, who is running for office in Tennessee. So much for "Southern Hospitality" and "Chivalry", because I have never seen such a disgraceful show of hatred toward another human being, let alone a "man" talking to a woman:As much as I talk, I had to search for words as to how this makes me feel. Thaddeus Matthews should lo... read more »

For those Virginians that live in the 8th district, please for the love of all that is good, do NOT vote Jim Moran back into office EVER AGAIN! This man is an arrogant piece of filth, who does not deserve to have a position of power. Apparently he is now an expert on race, and the ancestors of black people. Rep. Allen West made a comment that he didn't like, and his response was this:Where's the leadership of the House telling him that what he said is offensive? They will say nothing! Why because as long... read more »

I was interested to hear Malcolm Fraser, as one of many high profile Australians, speaking on the ABC this week about a world free of nuclear weapons. While I would like nothing better than seeing the realisation of this high ideal, I do not believe that it will ever come to pass.It seems to me that when the “West” speaks of “nuclear free” it means:“Only the ‘good guys’ can have nuclear weapons – shame about Russia and China but I guess they won’t give them up if we don’t.”In my view, unless the “haves” ... read more »

Newt Gingrich has won the South Carolina primary, beating out moderate conservative (and possible robot) Mitt Romney by 12.5 percentage points. And with his win, I, along with many other independent voters, cannot take the Republican Party seriously anymore.
