I do get a lot of attention with it and it's a lot safer for me than calling every second person I see a faggot.
If I got a dime every time I read an ad with purloined photos I could retire right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QjS0AbRpAo Andenzi, izimvo zakho ziyaba.

There is little point debating if you don't take a world wide view.
America is but blip on the world history, having only been in a position of power since World War 2.
Given the changes that have occured over, for example, the last one hundred years, then one can rightly assume that the current status quo is unlikely to last for anything like the next century.
Even in my lifetime there has been dramatic change, I suspect more is to come before I die, if history is any guide.

Another disturbing possibility I see is that the USA will evolve in to a sort of Empire like the Roman empire. Where only one or two imperial families rule the country. We can see things going that way already. So few people have a real problem with having another Clinton as president (likely to be followed in 8 years by Jeb Bush). Their seems to be a idea that some people are genetically more fit to ruel or something. That's dangerous, at least as dangerous in my opinion as the idea of corporations ceasing all real control over the world.

The Roman Empire was doomed as soon as it over-extended its armies and watered them down with foreign conscripts.
Sound familiar?

Re: Another Documentary!
Kelly, I like you, you are a gorgeous woman, but to me you are a little confused about reality...
These are Fantapolitics visions!
