    And some of us think that incestuous, polyamorous orgies for some weird hippie religion are not only wrong, but so very tiredly 1960s.

    Funny, I've been using Ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook since it came out, and previous versions since I got the thing, but I never had problems of the kind you describe.

    So the Constitution should be lawfully amended via a process designed to make sure that the Constitution can never be lawfully amended once the United States grew large enough?

    As a matter of fact, no, and Groves ought to pay his offshoring tax for Intel's design work done in Israel if he wants to sell the chips in the United States.

    No, because that would require some level of nationalistic feeling, and as every good liberal knows, the nationalism of developed, Western countries is the greatest evil on Earth.

    I'm a fairly hard-left progressive (by American standards... in Europe I'm center-left swinging center-right on a couple of issues) myself, but you've got a damn good point. The sheer amount of pseudo-Marxism and cultural Marxism running around today pretending to be solid intellectual Leftism is appalling.

    You are making the quite partisan assumption that the Arabs had exclusive rights to that land in the first place.

    No, because those attacks were Muslims killing Jews, Crusaders (Christians), and atheists. It's different, see?

    Israel acknowledged the right of Palestine to exist in 1948, 1967, 1969, 2000, 2001, and 2007. The Arabs responded with a great big FUCK YOU each time.

    The part I find out-of-date is the bit where the Senate still exists and such important institutions as judicial review and the right to privacy aren't even in the bloody text.

  21. Re:A Better Target on Publishing Company Puts Warning Label on Constitution · · Score: 1

    The problem is that it requires a supermajority of Congress and the States, so it actually goes through multiple levels of indirection, politicking and general corruption before the necessary votes can be mustered to amend the damn thing.

    When you consider the idea of a national muster in the style of Israel or Switzerland, the framework becomes painfully obvious.

    When you consider the idea of a national muster in the style of Israel or Switzerland, you have to remember that the right to keep arms entails the responsibility to be trained in soldiering and the responsibility to be so as part of a legal, defensive military force. We have the first requirement in some places in the United States, but we have the second nowhere in the United States.

    OK, so the thing to do is to tell them that, right now, if they remove censorship and agree to the European Union's democracy and human-rights regulations, they can join immediately.

    If prejudice towards Muslims is fueling the Islamism, remove the prejudice to open a vector of attack on the Islamism.

    I mean, I've heard a lot of conspiracies about why the US attacked Israel, but that is a new one.

    I think you mean Iraq.

    Iraq and Iran: Muslim countries. Iraq was ruled by Saddam Hussein, and Iran is ruled by a fundamentalist dictatorship (though it still has a lot of its developed, liberal culture from before the Revolution in places).

    Israel: Jewish country. Liberal and democratic with rising worries of overbreeding by the ultra-Orthodox possibly resulting in a religious state.
