Democratics still haven't learned how to be underhanded low lifes, so they probably won't win.

yeah, i have mixed feelings about that, whether we should fight ruthlessly or play fair. this shit makes me sick though, i wish we could do something about it.

why shouldn't we just ban all political TV advertising? They are distortive, uninformative, and totally annoying.

i hope they don't isolate scientific fundamentalism as a mental illness!

it is the greatest mental illness ever found!

scientific fundamentalism is when you never totally believe something unless all the factual evidence throughout history seems to verify it. and even then you still could be wrong. it's crazy! what about demons and angels and pixies and the Star Wars Missle Shield?

if you never believe anything, isn't that nihilism? "say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, at least it's an ethos!"

and i remember startropics. i don't think i ever beat it, just spent a bunch of money renting it time and time again from shamrock video.

i don't know how to articulate ideas. psychrofon November 8 2006, 00:07:42 UTC
if you never give any credence to logically coherent counter-evidence, you are a fundamentalist. Also, if you take hooey over scientific research, you should be forced to live alone in the cold without any technology. And die.
