lol I'm trying not to take politics seriously anymore. It's all well and good to learn about HOW GREAT EVERYTHING COULD BE IN THEORY, like a purely Lockean society! But we ALL KNOW that leaders are flawed. We ALL KNOW that human nature gets in the way of THE PERFECT SOCIETY

"lol I know it's old news by now, but some German politician compared Bush to Hitler. AVOIDING DOMESTIC ISSUES WITH WAR. You can't deny the comparison, though. Now we're going to declare war on Germany. SEE, I CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE. OR MAYBE IT'S JUST THAT BUSH AND HIS COHORTS ARE *THAT* painfully SCRIPTABLE. Who KNOWS! : D *is not bothered*"

Actually it supposedly was some German bishop and he never said it. My Journalism teacher was talking about this in class just last night. The guy denies saying anything even similiar to this and the teacher was telling us how foreign wires often get mistranslated. He told us the story about Liz Taylor and it being reported she was being held in a drunken stupor when actually she was food poisoned.

People like to believe the more shocking news and the real truth usually gets crushed by it. I love Journalism. -Josh
