I know. But I just can't resist. Regularly gets me into trouble!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I think ssh, was giving me a nudge in the ribs. However, in an election year with the monstrous lie machines in full flow, it's valid and responsible to call it as you see it. It's perhaps a result of my home in Europe rather than CONUS, my background with Uncle Sam the Man, and my access to news systems that aren’t designed to meet the intellectual standards of a fifth grade goldfish.
Anything I say in this forum about the USA’s politicians is protected by my first amendment rights, even if Ashcroft is trying to turn that into a roll of ‘Charmin’
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t lean toward any party affiliation, but I keep an interest in both domestic and international law and human interaction. From that I have some quite firmly held opinions.
The (very shortened) list
· Most long-term politicians are sociopaths.
· Even if they weren’t when they first stepped onto that career path
· Most political systems have become the whores to vested international or megarich personal business interests.
· And right now the pimps are mentoring their own toms.
· We are ALL well and truly f****d unless some semblance of electoral reform removes ‘big’ money and blind bigoted arrogance out of governance.
· Within possibly ours and certainly our children’s lifetime, gobal conflict will begin because of loss of the basic requirements for human life (water, food, etc.) and/or one moron screaming at another moron “my God’s better than your God!”

Even a snowboarder will be a MOST WELCOME change in the White House. Vote Bush out in November.

PG surely you are used to seeing that sort of behaviour by now, I still prefer the Wengen attitude to ski classes, i.e they can join the line with everyone else, it does tend to mean instructors take the majority of their classes away from the busiest slopes, which is no bad thing for all concerned
Masque, you are so right

Kerry's second day headline seems to be:
KERRY DOESN'T FALL OVER ON SECOND DAY (he went skiing this time)
That bit was made up. If you want any more genuine, well almost genuine, Kerrymania, here's a report from The Idaho Statesman.

D G Orf, I'll never get so used to it that I won't say what I think! Almost as annoying is the long line of sheep that stand by and say nothing.
Masque, Quite a apt summary from a fellow sceptic I see. It's called crying in the wilderness though. Said sheep will do nothing about it.

Yesterday I saw a video clip on the news of Kerry skiing and he does well, a decent shortswing and gets a good edge on in longer turns.

Masque, Last time I looked I spelt sceptic with a 'c'! And my national anthem says something about the dastardly Scots in an obscure verse. Which is fair enough seeing as it looks as if they're about to be thrashed by the French.... a truly major global catastrophe if they go on to win the 6 Nations...

Personally I think we can handle a bit of politics here in a civilised fashion without it getting out of hand. But perhaps "Other Stuff" is the better place for it.

I've only deleted accidental double posts so far... and my own posts where I've taken so long replying half a dozen posts have got in front of me.

Masque, Interesting, I missed most of the "provocation". I did see some attempts at ironic humour though....
