Here is a historical fact, which qualifies as a truth (but not one of The Truths): the german government took over big business, thus ushering in a period of fascist rule (Third Reich).

Here is another historical fact: The Italian government did the same, also ushering in a period of fascist rule (under Mussolini).

Here is a possible truth: when corporations merge with government, it is fascism.

There are many truths.
They can't conflict with eachother or they wouldn't be truths.
Not all of the truths are relevent when people make decisions.
You can't know the whole truth - with every question answered, at least one more question is asked.
But that's only where it begins.

another truth: Americans have less rights than they did 6 or 7 years ago, and it was media manipulation that convinced them that it was for their own good.

here's another: a war on terror is simply unwinable because it is devoid of logic. and Truth requires logic. same with the war on drugs, that's why even in Thailand (where dealing drugs carries the death penalty) you can still buy a fat joint if you know where to look.

but yet you were the minority and you couldn't do anything about it, and the majority shut you up whenever you began to protest. Randompal knows because he was there then. doesn't it make you wonder that the Democratic majority in Congress hasn't done ANYTHING about it?

Yes it does and the only way I can do anything about it is by voting (or running myself for congress, which there is noway in hell I would throw myself into the public limelight in that way).....like you said though, if I am a minority, then my vote isn't going to do much to change it, but it will give me the right to keep on b*tchin!

But we're not talking about a moment in time. These things run and run.
I don't know too much about the US, but I know how a level-headed majority can be quieter than those who feel the need to shout.

Randompal: Before you put your bong away, remember that its an election year in the USA, and during election-time politicians like to brag about one thing and another, but this hot air rarely amounts to truth, let alone The Truth. Plus, they often repeat that in the press - we're winning, then 5 years later, aw damn we're losing, then were winning and then were losing and around and round they go and the drugs never really go away...

as a good night note here is a quote from Mark Twain, a man that often comes close to The Truth:

"I love my country. It's the government I dislike (or distrust)." Ok so Randompal is paraphrasing. Dobranoc from Warsaw. Randompal suggest you see Wajda's new film Katyń, its quite good.

or indeed a whippet


They're too busy looking for Ferrets in drainpipes. Someone point them to Richard Whit... Des Lyn... Des O'Connor's Office. He's got four little ones and one large one. Not Ferrets the other thing.

That reminds me isn't Countdown the ultimate Des job. :)

- Hm, your judgment about Twain appears to show that you're convinced you are not only closer than him to 'The Truth,' but know what 'The Truth' is.

So what is the 'The Truth,' buddy?

Poland's ambassador to Iraq in serious condition

Published Date: October 07, 2007
WARSAW: Poland's ambassador to Iraq was being kept in an artificial coma after suffering severe burns in an apparent assassination attempt earlier this week in downtown Baghdad, a doctor said yesterday. The ambassador, Gen. Edward Pietrzyk, was wounded when his three-car convoy was ambushed with roadside bombs while traveling Wednesday through downtown Baghdad.

A Polish security guard and two others were killed. Officials had initially said that Pietrzyk only suffered minor injuries, but a doctor treating him in Poland, where he was brought for treatment, described his condition as serious but stable.

The patient's life is not in direct danger, though his condition is still considered serious, primarily due to burns to his air passage," said Andrzej Krajewski, a doctor in the hospital in the northwestern Polish city of Gryfice, where Pietrzyk is being treated.
