    Capitalism the villain as Moore movie hits Venice

    Moore will make sure that this will be shown for free at the theaters and all dvd’s will be given away for free since capitalism is bad, right?

    Hi Michelle! I just wanted you to know that I purchased your book today at Sam’s Club. Usually when we have a little bit of shopping to do we go there right after church because it’s on the way home.

    They had your book front and center for $17.88 and to my knowledge, that was the Sam’s Club price. I haven’t really shopped around for it though. I just sort of felt like it was meant to be because it was the only book that grabbed my attention.

    I’m looking forward to reading it and you never know, I might quote your stuff from time to time on Twitter. I know I’m gonna find lots of good quotes that mesh with my political beliefs.

    Ok… that’s all for now. I thought it was neat that you had a post up that said “talk among yourselves.” I think that’s very cool. Have a great week. :]

    Hmmm, are you keeping the Sabbath Day holy if you purchase Michelle’s book on the way home from church? Just don’t use it for firewood or Moses would definitely have you stoned… :wink:

    I would like to see a very gentle revision of our Constitution, to include:
    1) that Congress shall pass no law that discriminates based on: race, gender, mental attitude [i.e., insanity/hate crimes] or, wealth/station in life.
    2) the Census shall be based on an actual enumeration of US citizens who are registered to vote.
    3) all taxation rates determined by Congress shall be at the same rate for all.
    4) the value [for all legal purposes] of all US citizens lives shall be the same.
    5) any change to the geographical layout of any voting district must first be approved in a referendum by a majority of members in the district to be changed. Such vote may only occur on any day where Congressional members are routinely elected.
    sarc This wouldn’t change much, would it? /sarc.

    OOPS, messed up a few ideas…corrected post.

    In what I perceive to be a better world, I would like to see a very gentle revision of our Constitution, to include:
    1) that Congress shall pass no law that discriminates based on: race, gender, age, physical/mental state [i.e., no death panels/no insanity defense/no hate crime prosecution] or, wealth/station in life.
    2) the Census, for purposes of determining representation, shall be based on an actual enumeration of US citizens who are legally registered to vote. [no non-voters...regular census to be as is]
    3) all taxation determined by Congress shall be at the same rate for all. [no progressive taxation]
    4) the value [for all legal purposes] of all US citizens lives shall be the same.
    5) any change to the geographical layout of any voting district must first be approved in a referendum by a majority of members in the district to be changed. Such vote may only occur on any day where Congressional members are routinely elected. [no further pure incumbent protection-based gerrymandering]

    I’ve got more news on the case of Rifqa Bary: some Jewish organzations have come to her defense as well.

    Marvel Comics is destroying Iron Man, specifically, through character destruction.

    And here’s a taping of Electric Yo-Yo, made by Taito.

    Well.. goodbye LPGA! (I’m going to most miss watching Michelle Wie)

    You do realize that you just passed the ERA, a cornerstone for the liberal notion of a monolithic society, (except for the elitists that run it of course).

    Pregnant? Mother with a newborn infant? No special laws, not even to stop being conscripted to fight on the front lines.

    The ACLU salutes you as much as Ted Kennedy does from the grave.

    Just so you know though, I do like your ‘no insanity defense’ idea. All criminals are ‘insane’ at some level of their thought process and it’s mostly only those with a lot of money who can pay for an insanity defense that have any chance of escaping justice.

    Sorry to hear that the great comics have deteriorated so badly. I was a big fan during my youth but walked away from them when the comic books started carrying so many pages of ads that there was very little room left for storyline.

    Iron Man had the most memorable line I ever read in the comics. He had just defeated The Leader in pitched battle, and floating above the destruction he said

    By rights I should kill you now, Leader, but I made a vow never to kill. Remember that. There was a time when Iron Man could have killed you and didn’t; and that he refrained from it out of strength, not weakness.

    Good for them. We can not do much about Honor Killings in mohammedan lands but we certainly do not need to send them victims. Canada has had several Honor Killings that threw the Justice Ministry into a confusing tizzy-they wanted to “tread lightly and be understanding”.

    We do not wish to interfere in families when we do not have to- when murder is a real possibility I think we have to.
