  1. Timothy Geithner is not having fun in the revolving door (in conflict of interest) like Paulson.
  2. Never underestimate the power of words to destroy (self-)respect.
  3. Sure sign of desperation on bush_cheney's part!
  4. annoying
  5. Or raked by the moderator!?
  6. Apodictic power means absolute certainty. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apodictique
  7. W. Bush's pick (Henry Paulson) was the last of a series.
  8. Lictor is not serious: no post since August 3rd!
  9. No Canadian prime minister can emulate Bush for the simple fact that the Canadian dollar is not the global currency.
  10. For reference, we have to look at the life of Norman Bethune; he would not be a hero if he had not moved all his life and he would not be an outstanding surgeon if he would not have been attracted by butcheries.
  11. Contrary to our sexual desires which are fixated on one fantasy partnership; our death drive creates the diversity it needs.
  12. Keynes theorizes that handing out money to consumers is needed for economic growth. Since the end of WWII, the US is this free riding consumer allowing production worldwide. Bush's legacy is "legitimizing" this free-rider status of his country by petty, theatrical World-policing-kind-of wars.
  13. My Marxist-Leninist side explodes mostly during Canadian electoral campaigns.
  14. This post-Cartesian deduction is radically true, thanks to the very specific kind of reflexivity opened by the original Judaic unconditional commandment: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself”.
  15. Not being motivated only by what is merely possible is exhilarating.
  16. Bush's legacy will require falsification and destruction of more documents than Obama's legacy.
  17. No one needs to be very intelligent to feel that Jesus has opened humanity as a whole, irrespective of its numerous differences, to the most violent, apocalyptic path imaginable.
  18. We have affordable substitutes in Canada.
  19. Waking up the public from its apathy requires from thread starters a bit of provocation.
  20. Precisely because Canadians have affordable drug stores, they don't need these black-market, street-corner young drugs dealers.
  21. This topic is not about a belief but about a very original Judaic unconditional commandment: "You shall not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD." (Leviticus 19:18)
  22. Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom to hate.
