$25 K-Mart Tent Survives Hurricane Wilma

This 25 dollar K-Mart tent survived Hurricane Wilma on the treasure coast of Florida. The highest sustained wind was about 101 mph, and the highest gust might have been 160. In pitching a tent for Hurricane Category 2 or 3 location is everything. The tent should not be underneath trees with large branches, and should be in the midst of protecting foliage such as palmettos.

Florida cities should learn to use folliage to reduce wind damage to flimsy human structures with good eco-architecture.

If riding a bicycle from one location to another during the passage of the eye of the storm, one must be quick about it. Since the worst part of the Hurricane is the 30 or 40 hours of radio talk devoid of entertaining storm music…the pathos, glory, fear, anecdotes and so forth can become stressful compared to the weather phenomena that has nice tonal characteristics an interesting secondary visual phenomena.

I do not recommend hurricane camping for tenters, yet it is possible to endure brief hurricanes without much difficulty evidently.

"History is Philosophy teaching by examples."--Thucydides

It is good that Ms. Miers has joined the set of rejected Supreme Court Justices so that a sound classical American liberal judge can be nominated.

The individual should be a solid supporter of the United States instead of a trans-nationalist flunkie of the Bush zaibatsu. It is interesting that the Bushes have a tendency to nominate unmarried people that are as less conservative than Gloria Steinhem perhaps.

One would hope that the justice restores American individualism to the possible range of interpretations of the constitution. Debauchery and socialism should be considered essentially private issues, and not become subject to ratification and assurance of support by the court as they seek to intrude into public areas.

The broadcast media should be put back in the box of Steven King like Hurricane horror toys that the governor of Florida would need that author's glasses to imagine. The broadcast media should become an internet frequency tool. Democracy in general should be prioritized in the neo-corporatist era. Imagine a 'conservative' tak radio host actively supporting environmentalism and modern environmental technology...ha ha!

The poor Floridians without power now could use some wind generators...while not a contractor I would be available for employment painting or installing air generators by the hour...

http://www.windenergy.com/

Florida...that neo-communist state, has made unlicensed contracting a felony crime and solidly joined Fidel Castro's approach to free enterprise.

Protecting the elderly from contracting fraud could have been accomplished without suberting the heart and foundation of free enterprise that exists in improvisational contract labor. I have done highest quality paint contracting with the customer's materials on my recommendation, and tools in several states...and in none other did an effete ruling class decree honest work a felony offense.

It is there silly anti-eco-zoning regs that allow flimsy arboreal selection to place thousands and millions of badly located, unnaturally selected trees into vulnerable locations...as well as flimsy unwindtunnel tested building designs, flimsy traffic lights, stupid power structures without enough independent home power, public utlity lines subject to windfall, foreign dependent fossil fuel power internal combustion engines instead of fuel cell and battery electric combination power plant etc...

The felony should be in the complacent, pampered, corrupt,blimp decadent prosperous jackgucci booted thugs that never think for-themselves and inertial roll on with conformity being the greates virtue. What ever happened to American ingenuity?...Outsourced to China obviously.

Points of Interest in Job 38

I'd like to point out some of the marvelous elements in the book of Job Chpt 38...I have made some comments in parenthesis( )

11"And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?"

12"Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;"

13"That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?"

(This could be the earliest reference to plate techtonics /plate fault lines and earthquakes?)

14"It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment."

15"And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken."

16"Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?"

17"Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?"

18"Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all."

19"Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof, "

(People of course did not know about photons or space-time/nuclear fusion etc.)

20"That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?"

(They would learn about electrons and electricity one day)

21"Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?"

24"By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?"

(How was light refracted, and how do diurnal winds form)

25"Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;"

(How did the i.e.Grand Canyon and other water/valley cuts form...how does sound travel through the atmosphere)

26"To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;"

27"To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?"

28"Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?"

29"Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?"

(This may reference all the ice of the solar system's Oort clouds that gave the oceans to Earth and other residual water on Mars etc. of the 11 or 12 planets Pluto and Lila as well as several moons anmost comets are just frozen water/ice. Today astrophysicists have theories about how it may have formed)

30"The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen."

(This is a facinating possible reference to the near absolute zero temperature of space, and certainly the missing mass of the Universe is a problem for astrophysicists today. yet even the water out there in distant galxies is frozen solid in many instances and hard to locate)

31Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

(Following the interesting references to water in the Oort Cloud or Kuiper Belt areas, the itinerary travels farther out into interstellar space...and on to Arcturus)...

32"Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?"

(Mankind still hasn't the power to set the course around the galaxy of stars significantly, or really even a little bit...maybe one day before the age of the gentiles is fullfilled)

Physics and Metaphysics in Cosmology/Intelligent Design vs. Dumb or No Design

Substantial material facts are considered to be the universe for-itself. One might of course stipulate the word 'material' as an intermediate term, yet that would be wrong.

One can say that 'knowledge' or 'science' is generally about the heterodox interpretation of sense data in increasingly rational parameters of mechanics perhaps.

The idea of what the Universe is like for-itself is of present interest. Not only is there an anthropic principal regarding the parametrical values that physicist find about the bound variables that allow life to exist in this universe, and its improbability, there is perhaps something else that i will call the 'anthropic principle of perception' that is maybe a synthetic update of Kant's concept of categorical limits of human perception and accurate interpretaion of sense data because of the nature of the cognitive faculties in the human condition.

The anthropic principle of perception would be that the Universe is perhaps mass/energy or whatever it's called by people, and yet it's scale and shape or particular attributes are what cognition makes it seem to be...such as planets and galaxies. For itself the Universe may be quite something else. All those spatial dimentions may be united in a hyper-time that isn't relativistic, the superposition of quantum particles from all possible worldlines may simply be an illusory perceptable phenomenality by humans in'the'universe through scientific theory because they fit the 'holographic' nature of the Universe fully. There may be no space for-itself or time, and the nature of things such as gravity may be developments of long human sense experience that seem very meaningful yet aren't primary or essential fundamental building blocks of the Universe or pluralverse.

In a sense science must rely on mathematical metaphysics in order to try to understand the true nature of the universe through theories that can fit observations better and better, yet they do have that absolute limitation of being surpassabel by 'greater' or meta physics.

The anthropic perception principle means that the window of space-time that people experience in may be limited or filtered to such an extent that absolute empirical knowledge of the Universe or pluralverse isn't practical, and that it's grounding in God, and the kingdom of God being within ultimately, is a matter of faith.

Recently astronomers observed probable galaxies with many old stars from inflaton plus 800 million years upsetting the entire context of missing dark matter and energy in the Universe. Much shaky ground and facinating possibilities exist out there. The 'Dark Era' of the Universe before star and galaxy formation wasn't, in theory, so many hundreds of million years before.

Davies discussed the realty or non-reality debate about math in some detail...some believe math exists a priori in a Platonic sense, other's that they are entirely unreal, abstract systems that ultimately have no 'real' existence. The problem arise how math can cross the 'gulf of solipsim', as well as the principle of anthropic perception' to apply in a meaningful way and relate or transplate abstract relations of nature to human minds and subjective existential criterion.

It is a paradox that Platonic 'realism' is the most ideal of all philosophical systems, in which even numbers and math systems have an existence in a realm of forms of some surrealist, metaphysical character.
Actual physical force fields, and the accuracy and inaccuracy of math modeling of them seems of a philosophically dubious nature.

http://socrates.berkeley.edu/~fitelson/140A/realism.pdf#search='platonic%20realism%20of%20math'

Intelligent Design is a valid existential proposition to explain the existence of the Universe. Some of course give the phrase a bound meaning in order to specificly refute that as a straw man argument as-it-were.

One should not confuse cosmological theories with intelligent design as a valid existential option.The Universe, whatever it is, does seem to exist, and human experience does happen, and the question of if that experience and phenomenality is in the most absolute sense a consequence of an intelligent designer is always a valid consideration even if one a priori rejects it.

I have actually written a small book on this subject named 'Creation and Cosmos; The Literal Values of Genesis' in which I compiled many of these ideas about intelligent design and cosmology.

One might read Paul Davies book 'The Mind of God' published in 1989 and get some of the mathematical-physicist's point of view on the high ground of an intelligent designer and the modern cosmological theories. Dr. Davies won a Templeton Prize.

It is good not to get to mired down in incomplete and straw men arguement criteria on the issue of intelligent design versus whatever...evolution in some cases. Many of the arguments simply are invalid or don't hold water, are not relevant or determinative.

I gave Peter's value that a day to God is as a thousand years, for example, and calculated the creation of Adam on that basis, and got about 2.4 billion years past. Evolutionary Archeo-Biologists place the rise of Eukaryotic life right about then...coincidence?

There was a mathematician named Cantor that developed the concept of absolute sets, and he concluded that it is not possible for an absolute set of all sets to include itself within that set with validity. That limitation is applicable to any cosmological theory too one would think, and the empirically unprovable nature of God that some people claim is a reason for disbelief is not of a fundamentally different character. That is, an ultimate or absolutely valid cosmology cannot be proven either because it will always be subject to a meta-physics.

God is non-contingent being and not subject to the space-time matter of His creation. One will need to accept that on faith.

Use of Controversial Theories to Politically Eclipse Truth

"History is Philosophy teaching by examples."--Thucydides

This is a complex subject yet common in the history of propaganda, ad hominem and straw man argument techniques used to win political points presenteed to the masses. I won't try to document or writea thesis here, yet will present some chat that encounters elements of the subject.

As a general prologue I should say that I believe that in the United Statesthere is no real liberalism or conservativism remaining in a healthy sense, but instead the classical liberalism that regarded the values of individual human civil, equal rights has been displaced by two brands of transnational neo-corporatists of the left and right, with conservatives also fleeing into the neo-corporatist embrace of transnationalism...

I appreciate your reply to the points, yet I'd hoped for more critical analysis and not polemics.

'The science is sound'. –Mr.X

Are you sure Mr. X? These are theories of Li Hui. Are you then a supporter of Li Hui's racial theories?

quote from 'UglyChinese.org below' "Doctorate Li Hui from Fudan University of China had analyzed the DNA of Asians to derive a conclusion that the ancestors of Mongoloid Asians possessed a distinctive Mark M89 by the time they arrived in Southeast Asia"

http://www.uglychinese.org/uygur.htm ...

"About 30,000 years ago, from the launching pad of Southeast Asia, the early Mongoloids went through a genetic mutation to Marker M122."

"In the timeframe of about 10,000 years and developing a genetic mutation to marker M134, this branch of people who went direct north would penetrate the snowy Hengduan Mountains of Tibetan-Qinghai Plateau to arrive at the area next to the Yellow River bends."..."those who went to the east with a new genetic marker M117, i.e., ancestors of modern Han Chinese"

"The second branch of early Mongoloids, about 10,000 years ago, entered China's southeastern coastline with genetic marker M119."

"The use of "science" to "prove" racial fantasies originated in the good ole USA”—Mr. X

http://www.friends-partners.org/partners/beyond-the-pale/english/49.html

I am not certain at all that I'd agree with your premise that scientific racism was invented in the United States. Europe and the nazi's were not slackers at that effort, and beside racism is a universal human practice in or out of science that requires good faith to overcome.

Nazi socialism that was actually neo-corporatism is something like the encroaching global neo-corporatism of today minus the racial theories (see Mussolini on corporatism). The Nazi's actually had 'classless' cruise boats to ply the fiords of Norway in the 1930's to give the workers pleasure and relief for the tough road ahead..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KdF_Ship_Wilhelm_Gustloff

On the point about association of Intelligent Design with racism and bigotry, I would say that your preference for dumb design or cephalic idiot non-design is a more subtle bigotry hiding behind offensive accusatory language.

Rereading Brian Greene's book 'The Fabric of the Cosmos' (2004) the points about the historical progress of scientific cosmological theory from Newton to Einstein have emerged as interesting presently...

Newton, a devout Christian believed in Intelligent Design of course, and studied nature with an insight that the Universe has a background reference frame of space in which cosmic mechanics occur under the influence of gravity. Newton I think believed in a steady state Universe after the creation.

For two hundred years Newton's theory dominated science, then Maxwell researching light and electromagnetism quantified observations of those forces about 1880 and added them to Newton's theory of gravity in the calculus Newton invented.

By 1903 Einstein realized that something didn't add up in the light and electromagnetism parameters within Newton's space paradigm, and in 1905 he invented the special theory of relativity to make space-time a unified 'substance' in which light speed and it's characteristic could be explained. later came the general theory of relativity and by several other quantum mechanics.

Intelligent Design is the ongoing scientific and philosophical research into the idea that the entire Universe was created by God. Christians and other monotheists have a faith advantage in starting their researches with the correct parameter, whereas with Cantor's premise of the impossibility of an absolute set that is a cosmology inclusive of itself within it.

U.S. Administration's Border Policy Disingenuity

"History is Philosophy teaching by examples."--Thucydides

The President makes former President Carter seem like an Ivan Drago on security compared to his own ineffective policy. The Homeland Security tool for the President announced a cessation to their 'catch and release' policy that arrested 160,000 illegals last year and quickly released 120,000.

Evidently the Bush response to criticism of their incompetent border security policy that allows millions to volkerwanderrrung into America each year was the traditional slacker response of doing nothing until absolutely necessary. Paying for air tickets for the arrested illegals will do nothing to halt the flow of illegals into the U.S.A.--and of course Chief Chirkoff announced that a legal temp worker policy would need to replace the deported illegal workers in order that employers that had been employing the illegals in violation of federal law would not be deprived. If G.M. had such federal support perhaps they wouldn't lose billions and billions.

Not until illegal alien immigration is brought to less than 100,000 annually will American workers have a chance to see their wages increase--of course a development that would horrify the administration more than 9-11 presumably. Putting a label of legality on the illegals won't do a thing to put American workers on a fair wage/labor supply-negotiating stance with trans-national and regional employers.

Attrition of illegals from the U.S.A. through voluntary return and so forth would reduce the number eventually...sure they should be deported when caught with a bus ticket to Juarez or Ensenada instead of the budget busting trips to Cancun or Acapulco...a bus ticket back to the border in Mexico is so cheap that the nation loses money on the comparative costs.

The President's policy is just to run up the federal debt higher and make the nation into a sort of sharecropper post-industrialism with trans-nationals owning the nation. Capitalism in neo-corporatist philosophy is only for trans-nationals, workers should have no chance to acquire capital through higher wages and start rival businesses or energy policy.On the subject of Condoliza Rice's curriculum vitae...it's all right for a favorite appointee of transnationals yet not for President.

The nation can't just have specially promoted favorites with no elected political; experience moving into the White House and expect representative government for the people to flourish.

Of the Presidents elected since 1960 only three were directly elected to the office on their own merits...Carter, Reagan and Clinton. The others were Vice President first, or a son of the former President shoehorned into a governorship first and elected initially to the Presidency by special leverage of the Supreme Court (maybe Ms. Myers can help Jeb to get the job someday).

Presidents Reagan and Clinton at least were dynamic guys, and Carter was likeable enough too, although his economic advisers mistimed the job creation cycle needing to coincide with the election year so he lost. With so few prime Presidents getting elected since 1960 the nation has suffered quite a bit. Of course I need to include the dynamic J.F.K. in the group so the total is just four real Presidents since 1960--but he was cut off so quickly that he is occasionally forgettable.

'What is Truth' in the Context of Logic?

By faith we understand that the worlds have been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen hath not been made out of things which appear."-Hebrews 11:3

On the subject of 'What is Truth'?...I like the 'disquotation theory of truth', in which truth is an abbreviation for a longer list of things that one would say. That is one is saying that a is so, and b is so and c is so by way of saying that they are true. Perception to empiricists is about all that is true.

The objects or world of things that are perceptable exist without depending upon ideas about them (ideas can be wrong). There is a basic relation between words and objects that are uncertain and tentative.

Word's never become the things for-themselves...the word 'apple' is never a real 'apple'.T here has been quite a lot of philosophy written about the realtion between words and objects... P.F. Strawson and W. Van Ormand Quine notably. Some philosophers believe that there is an implicit natural logic that allows ideas that people have to order themselves in a natural way.

Formal logic is about the relation of ideas or word propositions to truth, or accuaracy. It's like basic addition in algebra...proposition A plus proposition B gives proposition C.

A + B=C is sort of like a syllogism's form such as;

Socrates is a Man (proposition 'A')
All Men are mortal + (proposition 'B')
_________________________
Socrates is mortal = (proposition 'C')

As a Christian I believe that Jesus is truth in-himself. The mathematician Cantor developed the idea of a universal set that contained all sets including itself. Yet he realized that absolute set of all set could not include itself meaningfully.

A self-defining absolute cosmological theory that includes itself is also seemingly impossible (the idea was made by the mathematical-physicist Paul Davies). Jesus Christ surpasses that limit of the physical criterion of creation that seems or appears as material objects or space-mass-energy for intelligent beings-in-the-Universe.Because no self-defining system can contain the absolute, it is reasonably for Jesus as God to be the reference point of truth.. in the for-itself of the Universe, and subjectively within the categoria of theory of knowledge for-oneself.

Logic in the post-quantum mechanical era still has a meaning of how propositions or ideas relate to one another and attempts to consider the validity of what they express, yet the superposition of quanta and theories that rely not at all on perceptable objects but instead upon conformity to abstract mathematical theories provides a different and more difficult to verify criteria for the question of what is true or not.

Hurricane Katrina, Hot Air and the Bush Response to Global Warming

Gary C Gibson Revelations 11:11 'And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

'The hurricane in New Orleans presented several aspects of disaster for some, and profit for others in various speculative businesses perhaps. For myself the used sailboat I bought in that area may be gone with the wind to compliment the loss of ownership of my 'home' property in Alaska the same weekend.

It would have been better if it had stalled on some oil rig in the Gulf, and petered out...yet Tennessee beckoned Katrina onward. For Rush Limbaugh's bizarre reasoning that reliance on fossil fuels from abroad is a good reason to plunder remaining American oil reserves and that Katrina's windy effects on raising U.S. oil prices to 70 per barrel provides a lesson that drilling in sensitive nature reserves is intelligent national policy instead of swiftly moving the nation toward a non-fossil fuel based national transport infrastructure...nuts.

The lesson from Katrina's intensity in a season of numerous hurricanes is that the Bush administration's lacking environmental approach to global warming supports numerous hurricanes in the warmer Atlantic spawning ocean of hurricanes. It is also possible that the numerous offshore oil rigs of the Gulf and extreme auto pollution of the Gulf States increases the attraction for and intensity of traveling hurricanes.

Hurricanes after all are just a lot of evaporation and hot air rising up toward cooler air inn the upper atmosphere set to spinning by the corriolis force or spin of the world. The warmer the waters of the Atlantic are, and the more asphalt and auto pollution are put out in that area to concentrate the greenhouse effects the likelier are hurricanes to arrive.

President G.W. and the Republican congress refused to increase SUV mileage several years ago, and only belatedly passed it this month when oil prices rose towards 70 dollars a barrel. Incidentally I predicted in discussions last year that oil prices would reach 100 dollars a barrel U.S.

On Recent Federal Macro-Economic Failure

Nobel laureate Paul Samuleson wrote in 2004 that international trade can create ‘dead weight’ losses for the U.S. economy (not a quote of Mr. Samuelson). U.S. political leadership seems to have developed the habit of lowing along on inertial power advantages that go to trans-national corporations many of which are American. Since Business Weeks December 2006 issue on the potential pitfalls in American economic leadership has the administration changed it’s policies at all, no.?

http://ideas.repec.org/a/aea/jecper/v18y2004i3p135-146.html “Where Ricardo and Mill Rebut and Confirm Arguments of Mainstream Economists Supporting Globalization”

http://ideas.repec.org/s/aea/jecper.html

What are some of the problems the U.S. economy presents to voters now? For one thing the federal current accounts deficit is nearly 7% of the annual gross national product. There may be a half million jobs lost annually to outsourcing. Outsourcing white collar jobs is an increasing trend that may begin to affect more than the poorest quarter of the U.S. population that has so far born the brunt of the policy of globalization.

The administration and some broadcast networks have reported perhaps with pride that they have planned to allow enough illegal immigrants in the United States over the next few decades to change the racial mix of the nation to a majority of non-whites yet that its fine because the nation used to be (100%) non-white except for some Albs and Vikings mixed in...that should be a consolation to the aboriginal Americans that any sort of non-white is just the same generally as Amerindian ancestry, and a way to disregard the loss of comparative economic advantage to China and India because for the second and third world new majority dire poverty will be an improvement from starvation; These are interesting derivatives of national planned parenthood facticities.

As the price of oil continues to increase and Americans continue to motor about in their aloof middle class royalty life style with derision for the disadvantaged in the U.S., with indifference regarding porous borders, in failing to prevent the dumping of cheap immigrant labor in non-exportable semi-skilled labor markets in the U.S., they may consider the declining value of the dollar that will make Wal-Marts made in China goods less affordable for the working class, the increasing unwillingness of foreign banks and private investors to buy U.S. federal bonds to fund the federal deficits and federal policy of outsourcing blue and white collar jobs while failing to create equal or better replacement jobs.

The fundamental trouble is the failure of the administration to be more than a free-rider on global economics spending savings of accumulated advantage for present prosperity. Its policy of borrowing and non-creativity in the field of capitalism’s implicit policy of creative destruction ignores the real existential/empiricial macro-economic environmental opportunities that comprise and essential component of real-world economic opportunities. A nation that is fundamental stagnant, for instance in spending 268 billion on a backward looking bridges, potholes and of highway bill instead of forward looking mag-levways, fuel cell and power lines in highways for electric cars new-tech approach cannot expect the rest of the world to stand still as they advance and America comparatively declines. At least Americans can wait in line happily as they pay 100 dollars a barrel for oil perhaps next year, and ask for obsolete protectionist measures instead of a Japanese M.I.T.I. style motivation to implement perpetual leading-edge technological infrastructure revolution that creates jobs and comparative advantage with export synergy. The environment should be the inspiration and core of the empirical motivation to get beyond ossified macro-economic federal policy.

President W. Bush Considers Iranian Nuclear Options

http://news.yahoo.com/fc/world/iran
http://archive.wn.com/2004/11/09/1400/p/fe/bfe72dcb371d2e.html

Military 'intelligence'/Aardvark Spooks and 9-11 terrorist cell secrets

With the startling news that a military intelligence secret aardvark unit learned of Muhammad Atta/boys secret New York City terrorist cell before 9-11 but were afraid to let the F.B.I. know for fear of violating the military’s strict don’t ask, don’t tell policy and possibly the constitutional lift and separate provisions one must wonder what secret protocols have informed Iran’s decisions to break the U.N. seals on it’s nuclear power plants and renew nuclear power development following the Bush administration’s signing into law the Energy bill with vast pork incentives for nuclear power plant construction and fossil fuel development. The Highway Bill to hell is paved with asphalt intentions.

Pursue wind and solar power not nuclear
Iran should pursue construction of 300 foot tall air generators, hydrogen fuel cell clean and invisible when burning, fields of mirror solar power concentrators and voltaic panel construction for sale to Muslim nations for low-cost home power in poor regions of the planet awaiting the missionaries of home-produced independent electrical energy. Instead Iranian leadership has followed the Bush lead along the road to global risk from nuclear fallout ala Chernobyl in the event of any war or catastrophe that would creat6e a shortage of nuclear plant operators in effect allowing the plants to run wild to meltdown without human supervision. Because Jesus Christ cannot be utterly certain to return before or during the next international war or social disaster to rescue the damned to become radioactive short term profit victims from themselves, conservative leadership in politics would structure a Kyoto protocol exchange for nuclear power plant and weapons construction for alternative
renewable energy technology and material such as was made for the CO2 emissions of the global nations that the U.S. administration refused to sign.

Pres. W. might even bring about political trust by permitting nuclear weapon time-sharing from the haves to the have nots and thus obviate the need for nuclear weapons development programs. While this is a Strangelovian sort of option, there isn’t a real reason that is very valid why every Muslim nation should each development a nuclear weapons program and waste cash on that sort of idiocy.

Those cowardly broadcasters of hel

On this above point I should remark that some of the broadcast media of hel will bite on it. To digress; that amoral and cowardly broadcast media desire simply to have power on everything through intimidation, and believe that saturation broadcast control even of everyone's blog ideas is within their right. In their bent, amoral 'reasoning' that is usually simply critical and devoid of positive thought nuclear proliferation by myriad new weapons producers is better than any time-sharing of a few finite numbered weapons in return for non-production of more fissile materials. For the amoral media macho posturing regardless of consequence is always better than reasoned arms reduction and non-proliferation because the broadcast powers of the trans-nationals do rely upon the fundamental nuclear arms cache of the U.S. Government to back up their belligerency. To circulate a few warheads from the Pakistani's ample supply in a controlled and monitored way between a few Muslim nations would be better in my opinion than unlimited rogue nuclear weapons development such as the media of hel would prefer as exists at present. Does anyone really want to use the blasted things anyway?

If the cowardly broadcast networks targeting and repressing individual bloggers as if blogs were some sort of rich Ivy League lecture circuit instead of a web-addressed opportunity for expression of personal opinions that the cowardly broadcasters should protect and defend instead of attack are really concerned about a fair trade of time-sharing some nuclear warheads in return for destruction of nuclear plants signers to the plan could jointly participate in air missions to annihilate the nuclear plants, or government sponsored terrorists with the permission of the signer nations/governments could destroy them as a training exercise for the aardvark units to learn if they could pass on the information if given a phone number of other U.S. intelligence agencies or even the broadcast media (or my weblog).

With the U.S. energy policy being what it is, it is difficult to imagine a course that would dissuade Iran from continuing nuclear development. The administration may perceive Iran through crude oil eyes with the additional vision deformation of nuclear power plants becoming suitable for trans-national neo-corporatist/socialist control one day when the Iranian government is brought into line trans-nationally.

Vulnerable nuclear plants need operators that could disappear in wars

Cluster micro-cruise missiles, terrorist attacks, designer genetic meltdown plagues and a variety of wicked worldly ways may reduce nuclear plant operator population someday. Iran could export alternative energy technology and produce cash if the administration is laggard and recalcitrant to liberate its people from an expensive, dirty fuel and lead the way to low-cost, clean, safe, independently produced home power.the administration's goals fulfilled of making America a cheap labor force in debt to transnationals

The administration is pursuing its ideal goals for trans-national profits of flooding the U.S.A. with low cost illegal workers and ill-educated next generation, preventing widespread growth of independent national home and auto power, creating a vast national debt for the wealthy to draw interest on (financing it), indenturing American workers in effect for a generation and subverting future environmental and energy independence etc. While the economics of the rich flourish the cost is to the environment of the globe that is renewable only so far, and should be considered as more than an economic externality remediable if necessary when the auditing of local governments really twists the arms of octopussi.

Tithing Mecca at The pump

There may be cynics that believe the President is infringing upon the separation of Church and State by signing the energy bill into law. With administration support Mr. Bush is continuing to train Americans to bow to Mecca at least five times a month, and more for volunteers by bending to put a gas nozzle in their auto’s tank. Tithes for King Abdullah are collected by cash, credit and debit machines at the pump.

If I recollect correctly Saudi Arabia is receiving about 200 million or more every day from the U.S.A., but what are the gas stations and other sales outlets receiving for handling the Saudi tribute? If one tries to make a purchase at many outlets of food or whatever the clerk very well might indignantly ask “No fuel!” One is virtually unpatriotic if independent from machine slave transporters for a short time. It is the era when skinny legged classes live at the top of the hill.

The trans-national policy cannot be to co-opt U.S. politics and labor through reliance on fossil fueled vehicles for life support units economically speaking for neo—corporatists employees. Since Row vs. Wade women have been a coinciding factor in the decline of labor unions and male wages in the U.S.A. While female earnings have gone up as they were used as union busters perhaps by the trans-nationals for 30 years male earnings have stagnated. The male leverage in unions upon trans-nationals was undermined by the ready and willing female work force that only wanted to subvert male earnings superiority.

While the upper classes may have been aware that women workers could be used to break up the tight negotiating relationship existing between male earners of the lower and middle classes and trans-national corporations, they did not fail to support the redistribution of the same portion of the income pie equally more or less between men and women. Their own upper class share increased dramatically the same 30 years, with female earnings of the upper classes rising too. I believe that less than one % of the U.S. population now own more than 8 percent of national wealth and income.

The only reason I mention this last point is that as an independent tradesman I sometime encounter U.S. female and even males that believe that any sort of male self-employment is inherently chauvinist. It’s a good leverage point for trans-nationals to quash independence and move the nation further toward neo-corporatism, a stagnant family household income, waves of cheap illegal workers to serve the easy working middle class perhaps with home improvement projects etc.

Over time reliance on foreign fuels, fossil fuels, illegal immigrants for dirty and cheap work, reliance on trans-nationals for employment (they’ll take care of you real good) and etc. may pay off deleteriously in the nation’s economic and political security. It’s not a good idea to have such and economic structure and also relies upon nuclear weapons and a huge defense budget for keeping on either. A better policy would be to take the lead in environmental conservation technologically and geographically, and lead the world toward a better environment with security for small businesspersons while getting the women to realize that its o.k. not to be molded by a transnational into some sort of ideal feminine or pimped role.

On the problem with the French; after the First World War the United States refused to sign the peace guarantee with France and signed a separate treaty with a new German government instead. France also asked for too much from Germany then. Clemenceau realized that American refusal to guarantee the peace after the First World War would inevitably lead to a round two. When the second brawl occurred and the 3rd Reich spilled over the border knocked by Hitler's fascist rhetoric into Paris there would be those that would look askance in the future toward a policy relying upon American political and military support for their security.

Clemenceau found their French Government as much to blame as the American for allowing Hitler to have so much rope.

Yet if Hitler hadn't been inclined for a quick invasion of Europe and North Africa, and had waited until nuclear weapons had been perfected possibly with the jet Messerschmitt too, it might have been bad for American international interests.

After the Second World War France pursued some rather importunate colonial retention policies, setting bad examples for the United States in Vietnam. France choose to get its own nuclear force de frappe and have an independent deterrence policy while being something of a neutral after a time regarding the cold war. It was a conservative policy in light of the French geographic location between the Soviet Union and the West. France pursued a non-belligerency policy with several nations and built a rapprochement with Germany.

France has worked toward a modern existentialist position internationally in recent years, willing to work with many nations through personal interactions instead of through traditional nationalist force as a military tool of confrontation. The United States after the second world war for a time was a dominant or nearly dominant economic power, but with its vast debts and refusal to move into a new energy base and transport modality synergistically coupled with environmentalism it has fallen into being the worlds greatest debtor nation relying upon international cheap labor to enrich it's trans-nationalist while producing cheap imported goods for domestic consumption on borrowed international currency from China, India and Japan essentially.

France shouldn't be an example for the U.S.A. of a decline into situationalist ethics, yet it should be an example for realpolitik. The United States and Russia have had a nuclear arms balance for nearly 60 years, yet when China becomes a major nuclear power and even equal it may radically destabilize that balance.

A disarmed non-nuclear world is an even more bizarre concept, since humanity is just as wicked as before the first and second wars, and conventional weapons, concentration camps and biocides could do a more complete job of human eradication that a nuclear exchange (what a term) I'd think.
