Reminds me of other circumstances of how the Elite controls most of "us". Once upon a time - I taught in high school. At the weekly staff meeting - the principal (a Monty Python character) told us that he had one phone call from a "resident" (no name = Mr. Big) complaining that students were smoking cigarettes on the way home from school - that is smoking on public sidewalks.
The principal wanted us teachers - upon finishing our legal responsibilities at the end of the school day - to then spread out throughout 1/4 of the town's streets and patrol the streets and/or follow likely student smokers home and stop them from smoking!
No I am not kidding or exaggerating.
The point is that the power that Mr. or Mrs. Big everywhere is overwhelming and of course flies in the face of Democracy government. The above is just one example of thousands that occur on a daily basis - everywhere.
So I have to explain everything to you? What better to distract people than to pit men against women - to argue with each other....... endlessly - the longer the better. The Elite new that women would get the vote eventually - would get equal pay eventually. The Elite just wanted to stretch it out. Which was the Elite's whole point - distract... distract.... distract - not polarize.
While women were burning their bras - USA marines were burning children in Veitnam. That was the purpose of the MEN Versus Women distraction.
"All that I am saying is that "left" and "right" in political terms are useful definitions to enable rational discourse."
After you finish reading Langer's book you'll understand that the whole point of the Elite inventing Left/Right, Black/White, Men/Woman, Democrats/Republicans is all about the antithesis of "rationale discourse". It's all about causing adistraction - so that there is no rational discourse.
If "we' weren't distracted then we would start looking around and really see what is actually going on. "We" might notice several hundred Catholic Priests screwing 6 year old boys acroos the country over a 60 year period, for example. Or Blacks being hung from trees like Xmas decorations over a sixty year period. Or "we" all might notice that "we" are inhaling radioactive isotopes escaping from Nuclear Power plants for the past 40 years.
"The fundamentalist attack on gays also fits neatly into the left-right divide. They think they're better so they want to use the power of the state to keep the gays down."
I don't know if you are getting it yet - Karl Rove had only one goal in mind in the last election - to win. Kerry had one goal in mind - to win. Bush and Kerry are both puppets of the Elite (Yale, Princeton, Harvard). Rove was simply smarter than whoever Kerry's strategist was (was supposed to be!). First of all, Rove destroyed Kerry's trumph card - of being a war hero. Kerry never recovered from that simple ploy. If there was a thing call Left - Kerry a war hero, would have come out with "all guns blazing" about holding a summit and invite Ben Laden and other Muslim radicals so that "war would end forever".
After Rove destroyed Kerry's trumph card - he still knew the election would be close. All he had to do was to set up a situation to collect just enough votes for Bush squeak in. So first of all, Rove made sure 200,000 to 300,000 blacks couldn't vote. And then went to work using the nut case radical fundamentists who all believe in The Apocalypse (geeez!!!) by using the Gay Lesbian Card. Kerry's camp reaction - duuh!!
You have to remember, The Elite used black slaves to build the entire USA economy - and to build all of the old family wealth - that is the basis for The Elite today. Remember a Republican President destroyed slavery not a Democratic president. Remember both so-called Left and Right, Democrats - Republicans stopped Blacks from voting for 60 years and more, kept Blacks on the back of the bus for 60 years and more, let Blacks get lynched (hung by the neck) from trees for 60 years or more and on and on.
In the supposed notion of Left and Right - labour is supposed to be this United Left (you know unions etc.) - with all of the social concerns about The Little Guy - what bullshit! Union leaders in the USA (for example) were the biggest war mongers on this planet - gunning down anyone who got in the way. It was all about power and money. In Canada and the USA - the National Hockey League players set up a union because at that time the hockey players beat their brains out (actually) on the ice; but, were paid next to nothing - while The Elite owners became billionaires. After 20 years go by, the players discover the NHL Union leadership was actually working with the Elite team owners to keep the players poor. Gordy Howe, likely the best player in the world, - his retirement package on retirement was/is $15,000 a year. Howe likely generated a trillion dollars in renevue for Elite Team Owners and Union Leadership!
You need to read Dr. Ellen J. Langer's book "The Power Of Mindful Learning" to help you get rid of all of the Urban Myths that have been pumped into your head in school and in the so-called Left Leaning Media (which of course doesn't exist - another Urban Myth). Thank god for the Daily Show. Well actually thank Daily for the Daily show - he was priceless last night.
Is Colbert legit? Of course he is legit. That is the whole point of his show. His show is structured exactly like programs that are on CNN, FOX and 1000's of other TV and radio talk/news shows. Not only is the structure exactly the same; but, Colbert is saying exactly what is being said on CNN, FOX and most of the other networks and in the same manner. But everyone knows that the show is supposed to be a comedy show - what some people don't realize is that it is a satirical review of the useless USA media.
The difference between the Daily Show and Colbert's is - Daily simply juxtaposes (for example) - what Rice (or some other government honcho) says one day with what Bush says the next day - each contradicting the other (which is funny) - while Colbert simply portrays every mainstream TV newsreader and/or "news" analyst (which is funny because they are so ridiculous)
Rove is the ultimate snapshot of what politics is all about in the USA and shows that politics in the USA has nothing to do with "left" or "right", "conservatives" versus "liberals", "democrats" versus "republicans", fundamentalists versus gays and lesbians. It's all about getting power/control and money (without working for it) to the Elite.
One of The Elite's puppets, Rove sits down and says to himself (in the last election ) - who do I need to screw and how do I screw them in order for Bush (a puppet) to win and/or other puppets (senators etc.) to win?
,p>So Rove, an athiest and the son of a gay father, then decides that since election is going to be very close - drags out the gay/lesbian card - so the best way to win a squeaker is to screw/use the fundamentalist voters - by running a campaign using "fear factor #1" - "about gays and lesbians are going take over the country and turn your children into lebos". Rove and the other puppets couldn't give a crap about religion. Of course Rove also screwed a couple of 100,000 voters out of their right to vote (blacks) - just to make sure of the election results.,p>,p>Of course, the other party hasn't found a cutthroat puppet "screwer" - anywhere near as vicious - or as "good" as Rove. And of course if the other party Elite takes control in the next election (maybe fundamentalists don't like Senators screwing their sons who are pages (they want to crew them themselves?) then the billions of tax dollars will go to their friends. And life goes on.,p>,p>It's Molly Ivins stuff I was stealing - she's the one who said: their is no such thing as left or right - what you need to do is find out is - who is getting screwed and who is doing the screwing. On any given day - the Democratic Party, the Republican Party. The Green Party and so on - will screw anyone, anytime to get control of the power and the money.
Hmm....magic going on here? Somehow one line got censored out my reply...... or did something else happen here? The following disappeared from my post: For example, the classical lie/spin is that so-called "right" (Republican's) are all about smaller government - but everytime the Republicans take control - government grows like cancer.
Oh no... the old urban myth sprouts its ugly head again - "left" versus "right".
There is no "left" or "right"
It's all about elections - all parties say anything.... do anything - to get elected and get control of the power and the tax dollars to give to their buddies
What anyone (who doesn't have their head stuffed up their bum) needs to know is "Who is getting screwed and who is doing the screwing?".

After watching the drek on FOX, CNN and all of the other nwtworks with shlock puppets - mouth Rove's media turd releases - it's a relief to watch the Daily Show and see Daily shovel away the turds - and expose Rove's puppets for what they are - puppets for the Elite - spinners for the Elite.
Now obviously Daily Show is much more adept in humour than I am - but more often than not I express the same views here as Daily does on his show - and then 99% of the time the puppets here score me 0. Which I find very funny - knowing that puppets here are like puppets everywhere.

Your revelations on the par with Einstein's E=mc. WOW!
Your stunning revelation that StreamingMedia didn't actually use the word Poopy when they told the world:
"
In addition to Real's superior quality, the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.""
With respect to the volunteer lemmings who scored your stunning revelations a 2 - I am sure that they would be first in line to volunteer to strap kids in school as well.
Dear dfghjoke - the Ace Ventura Society has apparently just decided to award you The International Poopy Linguistic Award for 2006, 2007, 2008 and 1865.
Noun
1. pooppoop - obscene terms for feces
crap, shit, shite, turd, dirt
dirty word, vulgarism, obscenity - an offensive or indecent word or phrase
faecal matter, faeces, fecal matter, feces, ordure, BM, dejection, stool - solid excretory product evacuated from the bowels
2. poop - a stupid foolish person

3. poop - slang terms for inside information; "is that the straight dope?"

4. pooppoop - the rear part of a ship

back, rear - the side that goes last or is not normally seen; "he wrote the date on the back of the photograph"
ship - a vessel that carries passengers or freight
skeg - a brace that extends from the rear of the keel to support the rudderpost
As I said you must be in grade two and/or illiterate... have a trusted friend explain the following to you:
the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."= POOPY!
Now some folks might call you a bold faced liar. But I would never do that. I just feel you are illiterate and/or are trying to score points.
The StreamingMedia site was very clear in it's evaluation of Micro$oft's WindowMedia system:
"Beyond the depth and scope of the analysis, the Proprietary report has several unique aspects. For example, the files used to compare the technologies were encoded by Apple, Microsoft, and RealNetworks to ensure optimal quality. The report also compared the quality of prominent encoding tools such as Autodesk Cleaner XL, Canopus ProCoder, and Sorenson Squeeze, finding a significant disparity between the tools."
"In addition to Real's superior quality, the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."
First you trying portraying StreamMedia's comments meaning the exact opposite of what they say. StreamingMedia clearly says - "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.". But you then are trying to twist StreamingMedia 's words into a comment that WindowsMedia is good??!! Common onnnnnnnn.
Then you refuse to go and read StreamingMedia's report and instead drag out your crystal ball and pontificate that their study is wrong!!! Common onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!
,p>"I'm sure all the streaming video providers will now "forget about Microsoft" because you said they should."
You are wrong again. It was StreamingMedia that said:
"Windows Media had started to fall behind. Usually it was at or near the bottom of recent objective studies that Microsoft was directly involved in. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.",p>
Micro$oft announces new advertising campaign for it's WindowsMedia system. Campaign expected to cause thousands of companies and web video producers to instantly switch to WindowsMedia says Ace Ventura marketing genius dfghjk.
Ace Ventura marketing genius dfghjk says that the headline for all of his display advertising campaign will be an instant winner:
"Windows Media had started to fall behind. Usually it was at or near the bottom of recent objective studies that Microsoft was directly involved in. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."
"Why don't you do that and post the results here?"
Classical dialectic circular rubbish.
You want to challenge what I stated here (and what Cringley state, and what StreamingMedia state); but you refuse, to prove you point of view. But at the same time you want me to provide proof of my point view. That's not how it works - you are the challenger.(You know in a court - the prosecutor has the burden of providing proof put on his/her shoulder - that's you.
Look jerk off - you keep going in dialetic circles.
"You are suggesting that I make a qualitative evaluation of Apple's product based on absolutely no actual information or experience with it. If you are so convinced that Apple's encoding is POOPY times 2, then I'm sure you are qualified to perform testing and produce documentation of that "fact". I look forward to you detailed review. "
Since you now admit you know f-ck all. Go and read StreamingMedia's completed study which says Apple's low quality H.264 video sucks - as well as Flash video sucks - as well as WIndow$Media suck - suck badly. Then use something called Google - as do some research. Hmm you might find Doom9's info.
What a bunch of mindless drivel - you have laid down.
"It didn't say that either. It said "Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.""
Do you need a brain transplant? When someone tells one not to buy something - why are they telling you - not buy something? Because it's not good! Another way of saying something isn't good is to call it:
- evil
- sinful
- substandard
- unfavourable
- rotten
- exhibiting faults
- having no validity
- junk
- crap
- or just a bunch of dog sh-t (another way of saying the latter = POOPY)
"Cringely offers an opinion for sale doesn't mean it's true."
Oh and what you say is true. Geeezzzzz. Is it false that Apple makes most of the billions it makes in profits - from the sale of iPods - YES/NO?
Is it true that the largest retailer in the world - Walmart - is the major retailer (aside from Apple) for iPods - YES/NO?
Do you need explained further or can you now figure it out?
Aside from transcoding upwards in size (GEEEEEZ) - the fact is that Apple uses a low quality profile of H.264 - there is no Apple Quicktime High Profile H.264. YES/NO?
Not only would be the High Profile H.264 quality be as good as MPEG-2 - but at a fraction of the data. YES/NO? Makes sense for download or true streaming YES?NO?
Apple/Jobs needs to take a feather from Nike's cap:
I imagine some poor slave in a Chinese prison, waiting to be executed so that his kidneys can be harvested and sold in the USA for a transplant - is getting even by screwing up Apple's iTune's video batch transcoding he's being forced to do!
Or is the Chinese slaves making iPods (working 7 days a week for 12 hours a day - at a huge salary of $50 a MONTH) are now doing the transcoding as well during their break time?!

Inn honorr of youer linguiiitsics award.,p>
Well it's good to see that you finally admit you have been wrong all along. And finally do you always lie or just do it on spacial ocassions?
Dear dfghjoke
Your revelations on the par with Einstein's E=mc. WOW!
Your stunning revelation that StreamingMedia didn't actually use the word Poopy when they told the world:
" In addition to Real's superior quality, the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.""
With respect to the volunteer lemmings who scored your stunning revelations a 2 - I am sure that they would be first in line to volunteer to strap kids in school as well.
Dear dfghjoke - the Ace Ventura Society has apparently just decided to award you The International Poopy Linguistic Award for 2006, 2007, 2008 and 1865.
As I said you must be in grade two and/or illiterate ... have a trusted friend explain the following to you:
the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."= POOPY!
Christ you...... must be in grade two..... or illiterate. Which is it?
"I've refuted the "evidence" you offered"
Now some folks might call you a bold faced liar. But I would never do that. I just feel you are illiterate and/or are trying to score points.
The StreamingMedia site was very clear in it's evaluation of Micro$oft's WindowMedia system:
"Beyond the depth and scope of the analysis, the Proprietary report has several unique aspects. For example, the files used to compare the technologies were encoded by Apple, Microsoft, and RealNetworks to ensure optimal quality. The report also compared the quality of prominent encoding tools such as Autodesk Cleaner XL, Canopus ProCoder, and Sorenson Squeeze, finding a significant disparity between the tools."
"In addition to Real's superior quality, the report found that Windows Media had started to fall behind. "With Microsoft's recent success in standards bodies, we expected quality to be at or near the top," commented Ozer, "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."
First you trying portraying StreamMedia's comments meaning the exact opposite of what they say. StreamingMedia clearly says - "but usually it was at or near the bottom. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.". But you then are trying to twist StreamingMedia 's words into a comment that WindowsMedia is good??!! Common onnnnnnnn.
Then you refuse to go and read StreamingMedia's report and instead drag out your crystal ball and pontificate that their study is wrong!!! Common onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!
You are wrong again. It was StreamingMedia that said:
"Windows Media had started to fall behind. Usually it was at or near the bottom of recent objective studies that Microsoft was directly involved in. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.",p>
"I am not the prosecutor. You've made statements. Now it's time for you to back them up.
"
No... you said I was wrong - so now you have to prove I was wrong. After you provide your proof that I was wrong - then I'll respond .... I'm waiting.
Or are you going to continue to weasel out of your conundrum? (you must be a Republican..... in denial).

Micro$oft announces new advertising campaign for it's WindowsMedia system. Campaign expected to cause thousands of companies and web video producers to instantly switch to WindowsMedia says Ace Ventura marketing genius dfghjk.
Ace Ventura marketing genius dfghjk says that the headline for all of his display advertising campaign will be an instant winner:
"Windows Media had started to fall behind. Usually it was at or near the bottom of recent objective studies that Microsoft was directly involved in. Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies."
Speaking of mindless circular logic

"Score 2" ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
"Why don't you do that and post the results here?"
Classical dialectic circular rubbish.
You want to challenge what I stated here (and what Cringley state, and what StreamingMedia state); but you refuse, to prove you point of view. But at the same time you want me to provide proof of my point view. That's not how it works - you are the challenger.(You know in a court - the prosecutor has the burden of providing proof put on his/her shoulder - that's you.
Look jerk off - you keep going in dialetic circles.
"You are suggesting that I make a qualitative evaluation of Apple's product based on absolutely no actual information or experience with it. If you are so convinced that Apple's encoding is POOPY times 2, then I'm sure you are qualified to perform testing and produce documentation of that "fact". I look forward to you detailed review. "
Since you now admit you know f-ck all. Go and read StreamingMedia's completed study which says Apple's low quality H.264 video sucks - as well as Flash video sucks - as well as WIndow$Media suck - suck badly. Then use something called Google - as do some research. Hmm you might find Doom9's info.
What a bunch of mindless drivel - you have laid down.
"It didn't say that either. It said "Companies using or considering Windows Media really need to evaluate other technologies.""
Do you need a brain transplant? When someone tells one not to buy something - why are they telling you - not buy something? Because it's not good! Another way of saying something isn't good is to call it:
- evil
- sinful
- substandard
- unfavourable
- rotten
- exhibiting faults
- having no validity
- junk
- crap
- or just a bunch of dog sh-t (another way of saying the latter = POOPY)
"Cringely offers an opinion for sale doesn't mean it's true."
Oh and what you say is true. Geeezzzzz. Is it false that Apple makes most of the billions it makes in profits - from the sale of iPods - YES/NO?
Is it true that the largest retailer in the world - Walmart - is the major retailer (aside from Apple) for iPods - YES/NO?
Do you need explained further or can you now figure it out?
Aside from transcoding upwards in size (GEEEEEZ) - the fact is that Apple uses a low quality profile of H.264 - there is no Apple Quicktime High Profile H.264. YES/NO?
Not only would be the High Profile H.264 quality be as good as MPEG-2 - but at a fraction of the data. YES/NO? Makes sense for download or true streaming YES?NO?
Apple/Jobs needs to take a feather from Nike's cap:
"Be all that you can be!"
I imagine some poor slave in a Chinese prison, waiting to be executed so that his kidneys can be harvested and sold in the USA for a transplant - is getting even by screwing up Apple's iTune's video batch transcoding he's being forced to do!
Or is the Chinese slaves making iPods (working 7 days a week for 12 hours a day - at a huge salary of $50 a MONTH) are now doing the transcoding as well during their break time?!
