The template for this kind of "oligarchic activism" is laid out to perfection in the "Powell Memorandum," an action plan for Conservaturd forces to "overwhelm" the radical egalitarianism of the 'counter-culture' of the '60s and '70s.
It was composed by (then corpoRat Atty, but soon to be SCROTE Justice) Lewis Powell.
To give you some flavor of the man, his relative and namesake was executed for his part in the Lincoln assassination in 1865.
Woody's making book on how long it will be before the "rationalist" monument is defiled or damaged.
"Less than a month" is my bet.
Btw: It's not a monument to "atheism." It is a monument to reason, reality, and rationality and sanity.
None of which are characteristics of "faith."
Woody agreez: When yer "allies" are forced to acknowledge that YOU'RE spying on 'em, it's a little "Inconvenient." For EVERYBODY!
But not surprising. And not "novel."
Every "nation" in the world, to the extent that it can, conducts espionage on every OTHER "nation" in the world.
It would be stupid NOT to, not to mention a sign of incompetence/misfeasance.
Everybody in every govt. on the PLANET already KNEW the US was spying on 'em, just as WE knew they were spying on us.
Military, civilian, corpoRat "intel" is a--I'm tempted to say "the"--currency of international relations.
This is a ginned-up crisis, people. Get OVER it. It's been going on FOR EVER! You have to be terminally naive to believe otherwise, or to take such painful umbrage at the plain fact.
Woody truly pities them:
America's 'Christians": The world's first and ONLY "persecuted religious Majority."
It's not too great an exaggeration to say that Prescott Bush was the personal banker of the Bund.
"...(D)ocuments, many of which were only declassified last year, show that even after America had entered the war and when there was already significant information about the Nazis' plans and policies, he worked for and profited from companies closely involved with the very German businesses that financed Hitler's rise to power. It has also been suggested that the money he made from these dealings helped to establish the Bush family fortune and set up its political dynasty." -- http://www.guardian.co.uk/ |
Life begins with the breath of life. It shows up within about the first 500 words of the Bible.
Gen. 2:7: "Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being."
Pretty unambiguous.
Breathing is the key. Life begins with your first inhalation (says nothing about 'olding it, though).
Case closed.
Woody doesn't trust ANY PART of this whole NSA/"Snowden"/Greenwald narrative worth a runny shit.
It's all FAR too contrived. It's like some kind of "reality tv" show. I have said all along that I detect something like the cold, dead hand of Andrew Breitbart on the whole proceeding.
It seems to me a sign of either 1) desperation or 2) complicity that Greenwald would demean himself by an appearance on Faux Noiz.

Woody'z all, like, what the FUCK?
Charter Schools --indeed, education in general, anymore--are a business, first, over and above ANYTHING else.
Schooling/education/pedagogy/learning: all are secondary to corpoRat "profit" points.
Whodafuck DIDN'T know that by now?
If this is news to ya, probly ya oughta turn in yer drivers' license cuz yer too fucking dumb to operate dangerous machinery.
HEIGH-HO, Selenium!
Woody thinks the NPR question is idiotic.
The movie--the 'legend'--is entirely dependent on stereotypes.
Pretty much, that's all it COULD be.
Cuz for the record:
Historically, the Texas Rangers' primary responsibilities consisted almost entirely in killing "Indians" and Mexicans.
All that thwarting the "bad WHITE guy," and saving the ranch, chasing white rustlers, shit like that?
Mostly didn't happen.
