  • Canadian support for their Prime Minister weak

    It's important to understand our current Conservative Prime Minister, Stephen Harper got elected with much less of the popular vote than Bush did in 2000. He did however receive more votes than any of the three other parties in Parliament to form a minority government (Canadians wanted an alternative due to a corruption scandal in the major opposition party, but wanted to put him on a very short rope). It's expected that he will lose a vote of confidence in the coming year (triggering an election) & will likely not be reelected, due to his ever decreasing popularity. The overwhelming majority of Canadians (it's been shown in poll after poll) disapprove of Bush to a much greater degree than even America does currently. There's a reason Tucker Carlson & other Conservatives like to rant against Canada.

    Aren't Firefox users equally safe/smug as Apple users? It's a common perception.

  • Most Holistic Salon Article ever on Politics

    The Subject line says it all. Talking about how both the political extremes in America can learn fundamental things & achieve great ones is something we've long assumed is impossible. Now we learn it's a realistic goal - now. A politician that can actually get us to own our stuff & act on it positively - wow. If I now have to reevaluate whether I believe in Santa Claus or the good tooth fairy, its a small price to pay.

  • Global warming can be stopped no other way

    The No.1 issue that needs to be resolved in addition everything mentioned in the article is CHINA. If all the world gets it's act together but not China,the problem will not even have a significant dent put in it. They not only by far, the biggest polluter in the world but the fastest growing by a literally unimaginable amount (literally building a new coal plant every week, not to mention aggressively polluting so very much more in all other areas). The next President will have to organize international pressure on China to stop China polluting by a massive, massive amount. Then India (following in China's footsteps in irresponsibly polluting on a massive scale) & others will follow. This has been swept under the rug as an election issue. For the problem to be addressed - this simply isn't an option. Think about it.
