I'm sure that gays will bring a more open idea to marriage than the repressed hetero christians who have dominated marriage up to now. How about the bathouse marriage ceremony with fun for all involved. And the honeymoon "cruise" will have an all new meaning!

Perhaps appropriate that the Socialists who started the decline of Europe will now get a chance to finish the job.

Country has been going to the dogs for years. As for the election, will there be an election if Obama is trailing in the polls by September?

All industries in Japan and any partially capitalist country, are "close" to their regulators. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. And what is the alternative? Government ownership of industry means the regulators and the industry are the same people! The Soviet nuclear disaster (far worse than the current crisis) needed no earthquake or tsunami, just the certainty of socialist/Communist incompetence to kill thousands. Be careful what you propose to "fix" an industry.

Greece and the EU are socialist societies, whatever vestiges of capitalism are left are not the cause of the current disaster. Rather it is the bloated government payrolls and dole lists expanded for 50 years now in the name of "fairness" and the government employees paid big euros the shuffle the papers that are bankrupting Greece and all of Europe. Only the somewhat more capitalist German economy has not succumbed, likely it will be dragged down anyway. The US is on the same course, one more term of 1.5 trillion dollar deficit per year will have us broke too.
All of this is of course on purpose, the meaningful political process mentioned above will the the bloodbath of the 1917 Revolution in Russia, or the 1960 orgy of firing squads in Cuba. Beware what you wish for, "meaningful involvement" is really only the opening for murder.

Assad is no dummy, listen to the west and give in to rebels and you will end up like Mubarak, in jail and likely to be executed. 12 months ago Mrs. Clinton was hailing Assad, being a friend of the USA in the arab world is the first bad omen.

Europe is the new "workers paradise" where the workers pretend to work and the company pretends to pay them. The modern twist is that the state has found capitalist suckers to own the factory and soaks them with such high taxes and social costs that the capital (the plant) is worthless. Of course the workers do not want to "own the means of production" as that would require them to reach into their own pockets to pay for their losing enterprise. So they demonstrate against the owner turning off the money tap to pay for their losing efforts. A microcosm of what will happen in whole countries without the cultural work ethic of Japan or Germany when given the socialist setup.

In unemployment, you get what you pay for. UK was in the forefront of forever (or nearly) benefits, so they will always have the unemployed ready to riot at the slightest reduction in their dole check. America is now approaching the same problem, 99 weeks of benefits and media handwringing about those who have "used up" their benefits. While illegal immigrants swarm over the border to take the jobs those on the dole can't find.

Just how many aircraft carriers are in the Iranian Navy? The us has several right there. And Obama has alredy killed thousands with drones throughout the area, how about a few Mullahs!

The sea shepherd boys are mostly financed by the Discovery channel tv network in the US. The fees for the "show" on weekly are the real money behind these criminals. Perhaps they have some assets or personnel in Japan that can be attached or arrested. Their real interest is in the money from commercials, hard to claim the pure as a driven snow bullshit.

The French are addicted to subsidized and protected industries, and British have nearly 2 generations of folks on the dole who love it there. Not a lot of hope for either one!

The planet has been warming since the end of the last ice age, 10,000 years ago. Must have invented the auto that year. And aren't the Seychelles under water yet? Oh the oceans actually are lower this year? How can that be, Al Gore is never wrong!

Should sue the Discovery channel tv for showing the Japanese vessels without pay. The money from the tv show is what pays the freight for the Sea Shepherd folks, can't have a drama without the heavy.
