Next time a big event leads to a feeling of national unity, hopefully more of us will stand one off, and examine the situation more critically.Spencer Troxellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03750605353914336538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179545922823777870.post-41687172332049515472009-06-26T10:44:40.447-04:002009-06-26T10:44:40.447-04:00After 9/11 and the start of the Iraq war the feeli...After 9/11 and the start of the Iraq war the feeling I was getting was that now all of us were on the same page, a collective agreement on what we should do. As time went on we found out that the lead up to the Iraq war was, let say, not to honest. But for that short time in history we were all one.Willie Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947859182677829335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179545922823777870.post-288976606906504612009-06-24T17:01:53.592-04:002009-06-24T17:01:53.592-04:00No, because I'm not advocating anything.

I was originally going to talk about Albert Brooks's 'Looking For Comedy In The Muslim World' as an idea that landed on the wrong man, but some how ended up talking about some kind of over-soul. I'll try to be clearer in the next post.<br /><br />Oh, yes. The propaganda machine is important in creating a mass feeling. After seeing how John McCain has responded to the situation in Iran right now (Get'Em! Kill'Em! Sell'em Weapons!) has reinforced my Obama vote a thousand more times. <br /><br />World politics is not cowboys and indians.Spencer Troxellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03750605353914336538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179545922823777870.post-6695572047970297762009-06-23T18:12:43.565-04:002009-06-23T18:12:43.565-04:00Strange/odd/interesting transition from your openi...Strange/odd/interesting transition from your opening idea to the Sep. 11th-Iraq War idea. Guess it was that 'where do these ideas come from?" concept that brought to your mind that transition. I often felt that way watching Jimi Hendrix perform. He seems to simply be a conduit for a kind-of transcendent energy flowing through him. In regards to the Iraq War--dont forget George W./Dick Cheney and their daily "Weapons of Mass Destruction" that they kept shoving down our throats. That may have influenced your opinion just a bit. And when Colin Powell supported the argument, that sealed the deal. As for myself, Im so damn embarrassed for my support of Iraq II that I will always despise Republicans (not that I didn't already). They're the cocksucker war party, no doubt about that. Reagan--war. Bush I --war. Bush II--war. Think Sara Palin would get us into a war? Think Newt Gingrich would get us into a war? Think Jeb Bush would get us into a war? We already know the answer dont we? A-holes, everyone of them.Lodo Grdzakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16417430593017226023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179545922823777870.post-87507522677144219532009-06-22T21:45:44.719-04:002009-06-22T21:45:44.719-04:00Just observing a collective response.
