I live outside of DC and personally the quacks that come up to DC then light a pile of tires on fire in protest of the IMF, really are no better than those whom they are protesting. When you damage public property spit on police officers, disrupt traffic and attempt to block the interstate you have become everything you hate.

Don't get me wrong those who choose civil disobedience are just and heros in my mind regaurdless of what they are protesting. But...

(the below apply only to US politics, by the way).

liberalism = The practice of making the sucessful feel guilty

neoliberalism = The practice of making the sucessful feel guilty while having a master's degree in Art History, a nose-ring, and a job pouring overpriced coffee for a living.

conservativism - The art of making the underpriviledged feel irrelevant.

neoconservativism - The art of making the underpriviledged work for piss wages for the sucessful, with a nice, healthy dose of veiled bigotry on top.

It's always the lesser of two evils, isn't it?

I know you're taking a dig, but that's good .

Believe it or not, I didn't come to the political conclusions I have by listening to "2112".

There's a part of me that believes that Bush would like to see social programs such as Social Security dismantled, his school of thought being that people should have to do everything themselves. Reagan made it halfway there by running the Great Society programs into the ground; Bush probably wants nothing better than to finish the job.
 

That is the neo-cons stated objective. Bush is one of them. Most people are only too blind to recognize it.
