I find it interesting that constitutional monarchies tend to be better than the "pure democracies" at being just, because a small, basically symbolic subset of their government is non-partisan.

The US is supposed to have a independent judiciary, but if you look at the Roberts court, it pretty clear that that process has broken down.

I think it's a good example of the practical application of irony. Sometimes systems which seem sub-optimal, or even self contradictory, actually work better than Ideal systems.

Someone fire the fucker operating that camera.

THIS. The dude has a hands down serious and important message, and he's got an MTV cameraman and a laugh track?! Why, why, why...

Christ, man, pick a new alley to walk down!

Rick Mercer has been tilted camera rants for decades now. I don't think he knows what a tripod is =)

That's his signature. His tilty camera rants in graffiti-covered alleys are what he's most famous for. Not gonna happen.>> ^jimnms:
