I don't know what's going on here...don't really care, I'm not even amused.....however, I'm beginning to see some things, particularly in the use of tactics and ends justing the means mentality. Might doesn't make right......I don't want to exercise my brain today to understand it more...because most of it if not all is distasteful to me. I've always hated politics of any kind. I would like to say, now that I have been directed to this thread that I think this post is pretty good, if not interesting....it seems to clear up a few things in my mind about things I've observed on my own and question the reasons why what I hear makes me so upset on hearing words and seeing actions. Message 26293763 I am generally careful of what crap I allow into my consciousness. But, I'm going take a chance and read this book ...when, I don't know...I might change my mind, I've probably already read too much? amazon.com en.wikipedia.org >>>Teaching hatred for the normal majority is the key to power for radicals. But Alinsky taught that you can't easily hate millions of people. To do that effectively you need a one-person scapegoat to focus all your hatred on. "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." That is the politics of personal destruction, and it doesn't matter if the target is black like Clarence Thomas, or a woman like Sarah Palin, or a severely wounded war veteran like John McCain. <<< I can hate love with the same passion and at the same time....I don't really care I've never really been into power.....I guess the pursuit makes people become anything they need to, to achieve some kind of measure of self worth over others? I don't want to get involved in this debate...it's more than enough that I've had to take notice. It appears Vi Vic whatever has succomed to the role of scapegoat?...I wish I could understand this mess...I don't Look.....I'm just grateful for who I am.....and only want to become what I am.....you know the pursuit of happiness and freedom to discover the self and all etc.. That's my thing don't hate me for it, like Joel said:" Don't stand in my way" Please...because, I don't yet know if I will go around you or through you?<g> I hope/pray whatever, this crap is over soon...BTW, Lucretius rules....That's all I'm going to say on the subject, it's over in my mind. Best to everyone, ~jj
