Countdown 8/6/08: McCain Under Pressure
Wrong. Real news is Conflict in Georgia. Sorry for being blunt, but even if US forces did invade Iran, on a global scale it probably would not nearly equate to all the shit that just might happen with the rapidly escalating situation in the Caucasus. That's not to diminish the importance of the former, though. Both situations are... well, bad.
>> ^Memorare:
the real news is the impending naval blockade of Iran.
George II still has plenty of time to usher in the apocalypse.

Countdown 8/6/08: McCain Under Pressure
>> ^Tulgar:
I have no real idea about US politics, but maybe McCain is proving that you can do and say anything completely stupid and still get elected? Its like he is trying to prove that the voting public is completely stupid. Also, is that overt sponsorship of McCain (buttons etc) by Exxon new? Obviously corporate $ has supported politics for a long time, but has it ever been that direct?? I mean, who the hell would want to wear a pin that said, 'ExxonMcCain'? sheesh, surely that must turn the stomachs of even ardent Republicans?
The "ExxonMcCain" phrase was created by those who do not support McCain. Anyone wearing that is clearly supporting Obama, and I guarantee ExxonMobil had nothing to do with it, and in fact are probably trying to sue.

Tulgar, this is an overt jab at the McCain energy plan by the Democrats, not an official sponsorship on the Republican side.
Obama Turns Heckling Into a Discussion at Townhall
nobody is "nitpicking" about the stuttering. responding calmly under pressure is not a "nit".
i have noticed that criticism of obama automatically gets interpreted as support for mccain. why not disagree with them both? they are both politicians, politicians have a 98% suck rate.
ahhhhh but you have the two party system which means you vote for the guy you think is least shit. clever system that... kinda makes anyone with real change on their agenda look... well... kooky. kucinich anyone? nah, thought not. he's "unelectable" right? so carry on choosing between your two liars.
notice how none of them talk about changing the two party gravytrain that has kept them all in nice suits for so many years.

I noticed your quote on an expert. The joke I heard once was that an expert:

Obama Turns Heckling Into a Discussion at Townhall
I think answering a question usefully under pressure and without stuttering is one of the job requirements.
Allow me to introduce you to our current president.

awww poor obama had to answer a retarded question live on camera?
he's running for PRES EEE DENT, you know?
I think answering a question usefully under pressure and without stuttering is one of the job requirements. Fuck, it's a job requirement for working in Burger King ffs.
It's not easy to answer in that situation? Err... yes it is, you just pause, and calmly deliver your answer. you have the microphone. what's the problem. maybe you can't think of anything to say and you are too worried that the people pulling your strings will get upset by your answer so you say something bland and raise a few rounds of applause and get the hell out of there, eh?
by the way, i know some people are retarded and think that criticising Obama is like automatically supporting McCain, but for the record I think they are both unconvincing public speakers and wouldn't vote for either of them, seeing as "public speaking" is about all i want a president to do. but fuck it i live in lithuania. thanks for the F16s.
US Navy shoots down Iranian passenger jet
The following is from a Newsweek article read by Sen. Byrd (D, WV) during a congressional hearing on September 20, 2002:

Oliver Reed on the role of women
Ah, this is a classic, snoozie! Love it! There are several things that are very worthwhile in this video:
1. Watching Shelly Winters dump a drink on Oliver Reed, first and foremost. Not that I approve of bad manners on this order, but I also don't approve of chauvinism. Still, it's funny to watch her act impulsive like that.
2. Watching Oliver Reed's stereotypical British reserve. Regardless of how I feel about his opinions, I have to hand it to him - he was completely unfazed by Shelly's action. If the British taught the whole world one thing that is worthwhile to this day, it's the concept of grace under pressure. (Yes, I know Hemingway, an American, wrote stories whose exemplars embodied this concept to the point that the whole term "grace under pressure" was invented, but I still believe it was the English who inspired this concept.)
3. Watching Johnny do what Johnny does best - keep things rolling, in a humorous fashion. Johnny could have been the original Jerry Springer had he wanted that. This little episode could have provided ample fodder for it. Yet he didn't, because Johnny was a class act for his entire career.
By the time Johnny ended his career some people said he was boring or not edgy enough. Screw them. I like edgy stuff too, but not Jerry Springer. That isn't edgy; it's just a fucking circus. Johnny knew how to entertain without being mean-spirited or voyeuristic. He is missed to this day by me.
The Stanford Prison Experiment
^actually, Milgram is the name of the psychologist who administered the shock/learning experiment in 1961. This experiment has been compared to the Milgram experiment because of its exposure of human behavioral conformity under pressure from authority despite preexisting morality or other natural tendencies.
Chris Matthews expands on his "exchange" with Kevin James
Really good interview. *promote
It's true. The essence of patriotism and love for America is standing up for her democracy and for your beliefs, not mindlessly agreeing with the President. As soon as we all buckle under pressure from power and give up fighting, we've given up on the dream of the founding fathers.
