Then we shall fight in the Shade

I've never been one for politics (besides my service to Caesar), but I feel like I owe something to the blog and to our nation, to have a say in the current matter. First off, McCain is going to win whether we like it or not and everyone who thinks otherwise is in fantasy land, because its always the same people on top (shady, willing to get down for oil, lets take over the East, lets go to war, lets take over the world, fix the economy and the media, yada yada yada). But I don't think that this is such a bad thing if the Republicans man up and do it the right way when McCain is elected. All they would have to do is propose a plan, in which we pull out our troops for a few years and fix the economy so the market rises giving the mass populus a false sense of content. They need to keep the Dems in House and work with them in exploring alternative energy/ modifications to health care, etc. all the crowd favorites. But behind the scenes we should be doing extensive recon on Iran and possibly China, with the hopes of future oil and political/socioeconomical conquest. Thus, after a few years of "yay things are peaceful in America" we can really eradicate the threats to humanity as well as use the resources in the East to globalize our research into energy, science and medicine, which needs to be taken to new levels if we're going to advance as a race and put everyone at optimum ability.

Something to Ponder...

What would YOU do for a Klondike bar?

Why Berlin?

Look, politics of Obama v. McCain aside - let me ask you all a question. Why Berlin?

Yes, Kennedy. Yes, Reagan. But that was the Cold War, and Berlin was the microcosm of how the Cold War was pulling the world apart.

We are in a new era - America not longer worries about Communism or the Russians. We worry about 1) Terror and 2) Globalization. My votes for the speech should have been:
1. Middle East (I couldn't pick a country... what do you think?)
2. China or India

An Inconvenient Truth

Web addresses on the blogs---They're not links, you realize. We have gmail for that, and everyone checks it roughly 30 times a day (median value). So spare us. Now I know what you're thinking---some of these websites are cool and unique and make the blogsite look witty and light--not alot to read, not much to think about--everyone's a winner--Stop right there. You're taking away the whole essence of the blog, escaping the task of writing an opinion or a story and using it as a forum for one's thoughts and feelings. Pictures will make the site cooler not web addresses; I don't want to take the time to scroll through our beloved blog to see some http shit. Once again, that's why gmail exists. And here I am comforted by the fact that the address actually serves a purpose. It's a link. Come on, we've addressed many critical issues (rising gas prices, chad not picking up his phone, ANWAR)---and in my first post I'd like to remind the contributors that we owe more to CREWUBANTER than this tom foolery. Plus, clicking, dragging, copying, pasting---Homey don't play that.
