The distortions, inaccuracies and , I'll say it, flat out lies in this little post are rivaled only by the spin of Joseph Gerbles ,the old Soviet Union, and more recently - Bagdhad Bob.
If anyone is having a hard time counting votes it'll be because you have the likes of ACORN,Unity '04 and others registering bogus, dead, multiple or imaginary citizens who all some how end up voting DEMOCRAT. Shocker!
And a big FYI. 'Fascism' does not mean, " things that I don't like are going on and I get to make up a laundry list of distortions and lies about them and folks I don't like ". If you're going to USE a word like that, try becoming familiar w/ the DEFINITION . It makes it so much more interesting for any possible point you might want to make.

Nope. I always put my name to my posts. Extra Ss, nope. Extra Es, nope...that was a guy named Dan a few years ago. Do I love making fun of people who post crap on here just to stir us up, yup!

Ah nevermind - was making an, admittedly obscure, Futurama reference.

I did say Marvel comicbook characters.
Uh, Joss IS writing an X Men book.
And damn fine it is, too.
AND he reads Runaways, another really good book, go get the back issues.
So please please stop tarring whole groups with your brush.
Oh, and if I didn't mention it?
Please please please go read Astonishing X Men.
I am not connected to Marvel, Joss, or Stan Lee in any way.
I am, however, a mutant.

Ghoulman, you are the envy of Bagdhad Bob. Even he must take a bow to the nonsensical deviations from reality when it comes to representing what is going on in the REAL world vs what goes on in your own mind, far,far away.

Well, I rather like the X-Men - however it's sad that Marvel comics will shit on whatever Joss will bring to the X-book. Just as other writers have recently shed the decades old fanboy crap surrounding the X-stories. It's a real pisser to see Marvel just dump it all and go right back to pandering to the fanboys worst desires. Warren Ellis was the writer? I really haven't been paying attention. All I know is - Magneto is dead damnit!

Sorry. Watched a bit of Futurama, but not recently enough to get that. It's okay. :) We all make the really obscure ones now and then.

Out of curiosity, whatever happened with Bill C-7 (formerly C-17) which I have seen called the Public Safety Act or the Patriot Act 3.
I recall it being passed by the House of Commons, but don't know enough about Canadian politics to know what else would be needed for it to pass.
The re-emergence of fascist type policies and ideologies is unfortunately not limited to the U.S. The learned lessons of the mid-20th century are dying off with those who experienced them first hand I guess. Inreasing nationalism, increasing ethnic polarization, increasing disparity between the haves and have-nots, increasing centralized authority within governments, increasing dominance of corporate power, decreasing concern for civil liberties and human rights all seem to be the unfortunate trend.
Um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm Angry. And I'm Armed.
