“The question arises, is the human race more intelligent than yeast? Unfortunately, the answer is a very firm no. The Earth drowning under layers of excreting meat. We are doomed. Which isn't a bad thing, in the very long term.

“It's obvious from the above that academic standards have slipped to near zero. Glorified day care. Several whole generations of Jay Leno's Jaywalkers have been spawned and are now posting on this and other blogs. You lot have set a standard for passivity and ignorance that will be hard to top, but I'm sure you'll give it the old party college try.

“It's Tarantino who's sick, is it? Well I've always thought of Tarantino's films as holding up a big mirror in front of us and showing us ourselves in all of our beauty, cruelty, absurdity, kindness, selfishness and humanity. If the reflection looks 'sick' it isn't the mirror's fault but ours.”

“He doesn't need their honorary degree, he has earned two of his own and one from Harvard, so they want to compare themselves to his Harvard education, please. Keep it, they need it more than he does. What higher job do they expect him to get, he is the most powerful man in the world as President of the U.S. I don't care if he goes to work after he leaves the White House for one of those companies that would pay him a $100 Million a year, that only makes them rich, not powerful.”

Obama's Progressive Defense Budget

This world in arms in not spending money alone.
It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.
It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.
It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals.
It is some 50 miles of concrete highway.
We pay for a single fighter with a half million bushels of wheat.
We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.
This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking.
This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron."”

“If as you say we spent the military budget on creating schools, hospitals, feeding the poor. That is all fine aspirations, but what would be the deterrence for our enemies to see how many nice schools and hospitals and roads and decide this would be a wonderful place to live and decide to take what we so nicely built for them. Just how many countries are going to be drooling at the prospect of an inadequately defended United States, no longer with a Super Power level military. You fail to remember that greed is a part of humanity and a rogue dictator not bound with separation of powers could easily decide to nuke half of our country and have the other half beg him to spare our lives by giving him control of the rest. Even if he was not succesful he still may attempt the feat if we show weakness. Arms are a deterrant and without the deterance you promote the crazies to think they just might be able to pull of something big and survive it. The moment we decide to throw away our nukes for a peaceful world is the moment we are threatened with extinction by the rogue nation that lied about giving up theirs.”
