I agree it's interesting trash, and loved/hate every bit of the weird it protrayed. The wrong thing here in my opinion is the unnecessary disciplinary actions. That's just pure BS.

If I'm in a crime-ridden area, I WOULD DEFINATELY WANT A GUN. My opponents will definately have one, regardless if they follow laws or not. Without one, I am not on a equal footing to protect myself or my family.

We could hope for that, but even with the current public campaign funds worked out, you can still have tax-exempt 527 groups do UNLIMITED spending on ads on behalf of a candidate or party.
Barack isn't fooling himself that the current system is fair.

You're weird.
Anyways, we already have Cyborgs. Just not to the extent you fantasize.

I'm also an American of mixed ancestry and I never bothered to seperate myself as Asian-American. To me, I'm just American.
Some people self-righteously declare themselves a particular race despite their mixed background and to me that just seems like playing teams. I hate that.

Some of you people have the most screwed up priorities I have ever heard.
You're more disgusted with the political barbs spoken in a political contest, than the thousands of lives we bleed for a stupid war that doesn't protect us, and spending off our future generation to the poor house to boot.
Please, hit yourself over the head, and get your priorities straight.

Spielberg didn't direct Transformers, he produced it. As in sold the idea to a bunch of Hollywood execs and helped advertised.
The director was the same guy who did Pearl Harbor.

Interesting article.
It does at least give me a new perspective why China invaded, though I'm not going to believe for a moment for altruistic reasons. Tibet is a good base for operations in greater Asia, and if the communist power of the day thought that America or Britain would use it to prevent the spread of communism I can see why they would preempt the take over of Tibet.
Regardless, that is only a revealing history lesson, this however is all about the human condition of China's rule in Tibet.
Tibetans are pissed. They'd like more autonomy if not to regain their independence. Heck, maybe they like to practice their religion without being persecuted.

I notice some people are calling for others to stop injecting politics into the 2008 Olympics, but you seem to have a large blind spot in regard to how China is setting up the Olympics themselves.
Tibet wants to be free of Chinese domination.
China wants to be a superpower.
My suggestion is to not watch the Olympics, or go to it if you disagree with it, which doesn't change anything for me anyways.
Nothing is sacred about the Olympics when put into practice, it has high ideals, but it never reflects reality.

The previous design was more eye friendly and easier to read in a hurry.
