Ratio of 3:1 Barack Obama should be so popular and win a landslide election. That's better even than your ratio. A big pile of words puts a lot of people off - can't be bother wading through it all. Others prefer quick cliches and slogans of conventional wisdom. Others get annoyed by my style. Obviously contentious. Look at the hysterical reaction to the suggestion that 99.9% was an inaccurate figure [click back up the posts to read]. Message 28091671 That must be some sort of record recommendations. Yet I was, of course, right. When somebody is blown up by a terrorist, it's academic to them whether it was the IRA, the French government, Breivik, Tim McVeigh, or a particular wing of Al Qaeda or Hamas or due to a fatwah by a Moslem cleric. One is probably not supposed to point out that Americans are terrorists too - Gerry Adams used to be invited to the White House and many Americans were in favour of bombing people in London. After a spot of terrorism arrived in New York, supporting the IRA bombings became a bit less fashionable and George Bush II banned Gerry Bloody Adams. A family of New Zealanders was bombed in the Tower of London by the IRA. That rabid mob at Lindy's don't understand that - they call it moral relativity or some such jargon. Which means it doesn't count in the 99.9%. The children at Omagh don't count either.
