  1. Holy roundhouse kick, Batman! That Sneijder goal was spectacular.
  2. Ok... It looks like someone has been reading to many neo-con blogs. Hmm never heard that before, but dont worry I only watch what reporters report... and look at leaked information... You're still here? You should be in the library by now reading Macchiavelli's "The Prince", Plato's "The Republic", Europides' "Troy", Nietzsche's "Thus spoken Zarahsustra", or the history of politics. And while you're at it, some Dostovieski, Tolstoi and Goethe. Oh, and you seem to be very concerned about national security, then read and learn the fallacies of false security by readin Shirer's "The rise and fall of the Third Reich", you will not find anything as comprohensive as that book. Now stop posting and start reading. Ontopic though, how's the status of nationwide polls on McCain and Obama, still neck to neck?
  3. Germany was incredibly efficient tonight. And Podolski was like a cannon, very impressive indeed.
  4. ...And only to come back like flies around sh*t when it is released Just focus your mind on something else for the time being.
  5. Smilies says more than words
  6. You're still here? Anyways, Portugal really impressed me tonight, and even without Ronaldo scoring!
  7. A part of me wonders if she will sabotage Obama's prospects on becoming president by a series proxy attacks. And then, she will be ready again by 2012.
  8. It's a so-so series. I do like however that Holland redeems his assh****ness completely by the end of the series though.
  9. THE SOVIET NATIONAL ANTHEM Yes, i have to use capital letters. The hymn demands it. Workers around the world demands it. Every soul rising against the power demands it. Why do the most totalitarian states have the most awesome anthems? It's not fair
  10. Since Finland always manage to fail to qualify for any major football event, i've grown accustomed to put my support on other countries. So, any other country than Italy, what a bunch of overpriced primadonnas who care more about their hairstyle than the game....*mumble* *mumble* Seriously, i think that Germany should take it this time.
  11. Do: 1. Go to school, or the nearest university library 2. Read books on political science and history 3. Read some litterature 4. Read some philosophy 5. Question everything Do not: 1. Read blogs 2. Read conservopedia 3. Watch any commercial news channel 4. Listen to your pastor for political advise, or your family, nor your friends 5. Ridicule other people for their beliefs Come back after you have done as i mentioned on my list. Take your time as well, not for everyone elses sake, but for your own. Thanks!
  12. Fixed. Thanks, Pidesco You missed "bureaucracy." D'oh!
  13. You did!? Well yeah... Doesn't the US constitution guarantee his right to free speech? Or is abortion an exception? Most schools enforce this under the same banner as in, it is forbidden to yell "fire" as a joke. It is usually up to the school to define themselves on what "disruptive of the common order" exactly is. Some schools can be really bad on this front. In my high-school however, that kind of a t-shirt would've been seen and shrugged at, since there is no debate on abortion. We were pretty much allowed to wear whatever we wanted as long there wasn't too much nudity or text that was directly against the law. Cloths which displayed overly racist or anti-[insert religion here] texts or images were officially forbidden, but never really enforced, since the school focused most of its resources on anti-mobbing and such. Oh, and i live in Europe.
  14. Oh dear. That's really bad luck. Send a photograph of each of your copies to Lucasarts, you will hopefully recieve a positive answer. I still bet on November 20th.
  15. Never agreed with the guy on one single thing. Still, i would never wish him harm, so it's good to see him alive.
  16. If the politicians would really like to alienate themselves against their voters, then yeah. In reality, nope.
  17. Fixed. Thanks, Pidesco
  18. Currently, the European parliament is by elected officials from each member state, there is also the European Counsil, who consists of the prime ministers or presidents of each member country (they are ofcourse elected as well), and the European Counsil, which is appointed by the European Parliament, which makes it even more washy. The European Counsil suggested the treaty, which the parliament also agreed on. A real shame for the voters indeed. The beaurocracy is already horrendous with the current system.
  19. In order to get some non-europeans to the matter. It is basically the same as the old European constitution, but it was thrown into the dust bin after both France and Holland vote "No" in their respective referendums. This is one is the very same document, sign as a treaty by the prime ministers, which creates a new constitution. Talk about throwing the will of the people down the drain. Come on you people on the emerald isle! Say no to centralization, say no to more power to the politicians in brussels. Say yes to your own political power!
  20. Official Page. I am severly against myself, it puts more power to the EU itself on the expense of the member states. As we all know, more centralisation means more beaurocracy and less democracy and efficiency. Hopefully the Irish will vote with a big "NO".
  21. Just deal with the matter rationally and let the student wear the damn shirt. Make sure that the person wearing the shirt is still dealt with a mature manner, meaning acknowledge the opinion of the student and continue with the lecture and make sure that an eventual discussion is dealt in a decent manner. Students should be raized to question the world and seek knowledge, and accepting different opinions as consequence of that. I am an idealist.
  22. True. It's just a whole lot easier with Islam as a tool by the establishment.
  23. Wise words. We're living in an era of cynicism right now, it oft seems. Not in Australia, really. We've had about 15 years of prosperity and success. It will be interesting to see how we fare the next 5 years; what goes up must come down... or at least stabilise to equilibrium (more likely scenario). But yeah, it certainly seems Europe has an era of cynics, from my perspective as an observer. I'm concerned about how Europe will handle it's drastic population ageing and population implosion issues. Agreed. I am currently very, very furious over the Lissabon agreement. This has made me a cynic, there is no or little debate in the mainland Europe about the whole thing, and i find it very appaling that our own government has said that "all finns agreed with that since we vote 'yes' on the referendum to join the EU". More referendums, less central control. No one in their clearest mind think that giving the people less to say on such matters as such of a new European constitution is something of "The will of the people". ESAD to everyone in the european parliament who agrees with no referendum on the Lissabon agreement, ESAD. /head explodes
