Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought.

Thumbs down Georgia and Russia at war

Bush has condemned the aggressive actions of Russia (hypocrite), but the bombing continues with the death toll at roughly 1,500. Since a war between Russia and Georgia is about as even a fight between a grizzly bear and a squirrel, a ceasefire must be put in place. Now, I feel that Ossetia deserves autonomy, but pummelling civilian targets with bombs really doesn't make sense. Of course, the mainstream media has more pressing issues (ie, Olympics, Amy Winehouse, Paris Hilton)

What? A squirrel can run and climb a tree much faster than a bear.

Heh, so Russia is starting to run over them walking testicles (Georgians.) I wonder if US intervenes. This should be interesting...

Yeah, Georgia has no chance against Russia, but they kind of should of thought about that before annihilating the Russian-supported separatist stronghold of Tskhinvali shouldn't they?

Right now what Russia is doing is essentially protecting Russian citizens.

Except the fact that Russia supports the separatists in Georgia. Russia isn't in the clear on this one, regardless of home many Russian live there.

Could it be that by occupying georgia Russia is secretly trying to pave a road of support towards Iran, what with the US eyeing down Iran as its next target of coagulated bad guy.
