I wish we were a multi-party political system.

I'd rather have Ron Paul, Bloomberg, the Terminator (I know), Huckabee, Chuch Hagel, anyone but the three in the running right now.

Heck, I'd just like to have some fiscal responsibility and a non-consumer-oriented economy. Give me that and you hippies can not bathe to your heart is content.

Barrack Obama.

I'm sure there's lots of good things to say about him.

An interesting video on US politics.

istirith March 20, 2008 08:20AM

Chomsky is brilliant in general.

Death_Claw March 21, 2008 03:33AM

Bite your tongue re: Bloomberg.

Death_Claw March 20, 2008 07:18AM

Isn't it a bit disheartening then?

Lokain March 20, 2008 06:20AM

If we learn anything from Bush -

Japherwocky March 22, 2008 09:16AM

I see Obama as the more pragmatic of the two.

They cant withdraw from Iraq, they need a permanent military presence for oil ~

enyuu March 20, 2008 05:51AM

I don't think that's the case at all.

Death_Claw March 20, 2008 06:33AM

Interesting thing regarding Chomsky's viewpoint on the war in Iraq.

Death_Claw March 21, 2008 03:29AM

I thought the economic argument held a lot more sway...

Yhorian(VIP) March 21, 2008 05:53AM

On that Chomsky agrees with me actually.

Death_Claw March 21, 2008 07:47AM

Uh, I'm lazy

Guy March 21, 2008 07:43AM

According to the US CIA factbook...

Yhorian(VIP) March 21, 2008 11:54AM

I think the point is that China's oil consumption is rising pretty fast (txt)

Jib March 21, 2008 04:12PM

If you take into account the population differences between US and China too, the US consumption is phenomenally large.

istirith March 21, 2008 03:09PM

I think it's logistical, higher densities in China mean less transportation energy needed.

Yhorian(VIP) March 21, 2008 03:21PM

Wow.

Jib March 21, 2008 05:02PM

It's more the culture/situation I was referring to...

Yhorian(VIP) March 22, 2008 01:35AM

For the record, Britain's hands are far bloodier than America's.

Death_Claw March 22, 2008 10:02AM

Actually, any state in the world was and is like that. (txt)

Woland March 24, 2008 07:29AM

Fair comment. And I'm well aware, cheers. nt

Yhorian(VIP) March 22, 2008 06:53PM

Wow. It's easy to understand why people dislike your "opinions". Since they tend to be framed as factual arguments..

Lokain March 22, 2008 07:31AM

17% of the oil comes from Saudi Arabia, 17% from two African countries, the rest is from the Americas

Lokain March 21, 2008 07:39AM

Try an expanded list. It shows nearer 23% of total imports being middle-eastern.

Yhorian(VIP) March 21, 2008 12:09PM

Again you're missing the point.

Death_Claw March 22, 2008 09:55AM

Ah regardless..

Lokain March 21, 2008 01:41PM

Not likely, but maybe not as unlikely as you think.

Death_Claw March 22, 2008 09:53AM

Actually, the 'imported' is a good point. Didn't think of that :P

Yhorian(VIP) March 21, 2008 03:13PM

What exactly are you considering the Middle East?
