Brian, I have to agree that Phreadz is, without doubt simplicity in itself. Much as I like forums, Twitter et al, so many are two dimensional or just too clumsy to use. I particularly like the threaded conversation patterns, and have already commented on site that I see the universal application in both the commercial and personal sectors. Koss is a very clever bloke, his wisdom exacerbated by those enlarged trademark glasses.... I just hope Kosso gets a great return from his wonderful application. It get six stars from me (out of five). Amen Brother!

Whether or not McCain (or Obama, for that matter) is pandering is something we can only presume. Simplifying the issues to make the other candidate looks stupid apparently remains an effective strategy. Thanks, Dave, for your comments.

It made me think quite a bit. Obviously there is a huge double-standard when we judge Obama by Wright but not McCain by Robertson. While I'll not discount the reality of racism as it still exists in America today, I think a major contributing factor for this double-standard is the fact that Obama is still fighting in his party's primary while McCain is not. Obama is focused on bettering is standings against Clinton - not McCain. Otherwise I expect the apt comparisons Mr. Moyer gave would have been made much more quickly and sternly by Obama himself. Personally I don't think either Obama or McCain share the extreme beliefs of their respective religious supporters, but I'm inclined to be more disappointed in McCain's willingness to pander to the extreme right. McCain however has had the luxury of less intense scrutiny, and I have to admit - has done a very good job of deftly deflecting implications when reporters ask him about the views of those who support him. 'They endorse me - I'm not endorsing them' (paraphrase) Thanks for the post, and for sharing Bill Moyer’s comments. It made me think quite a bit.

I know someone (you probably know who) that does not seem to understand that everyone else isn't like him. He thinks everyone should think like him, and if they don't they are stupid. That also extends to learned behavior versus someone being strong enough to make their own decisions. I had a friend in High School that wouldn't talk to me when he found out I was gay. It wasn't because he thought with his mind, but his dad instilled this on him and he never had the strength to make his own decisions. just my $0.02 JayT I think that some people are like that, but not everyone.

What is so frustrating is fear is rarely a good gauge of reality. That is, we often fear until we learn (immediate and imminent threats being perhaps more often the exception). The reluctance to learn may be tied into the reluctance to discover what we know may be flawed. Change requires adjustment, which requires effort, which requires energy, which we tend to over-consume in our pursuit of bliss.

He needs to be very patiently tought about nearly everything that involves theory of mind, that he lacks probably because a bad wiring of mirror neurons, or absence of. This inability brings him a lot of frustration and anxiety. Not the contrary. America should learn how to overcome its insecurity by learning how to change its point of view(s) and empathize with others that may seem different, and not have such a passion for sameness.

I was posting an entry on Monday when I was describing my feeling of uneasiness because of Hillary's lack of human management (with her own team) that should call to attention. I was also wondering whether it had not been one of the reasons why Royal lost her campaign in France's presidential elections last year. But it is impossible to compare, of course.

It reminds me of the 2000 election, when the outcome was hanging on chads. Bush and Cheney believed in their vision of the outcome so viscerally that they began publicly picking a cabinet in Crawford. At the time I could sense the subtle shift which that scene made in my sense of what was going to happen. At this point, Clinton has got the Bush-Cheney mojo going, a fire in her gut that enables her to say anything, do anything. My hope is that Obama's fire is truer, and that his steel is more pure and strong, and that he knows it is, so he is not flapping his arms and jumping up and down shouting his inevitability from the rooftops. If I'm right, the end is going to be okay. We will nominate a candidate who is true to his principles, smart as hell, comfortable in his own skin of color, and grounded in deep personal faith. In the general, those qualities plus the potent elixr of youth will lead Obama to a landslide victory, marking a new era of progressive government, a Reaganesque nudge of the pendulum back from one extreme toward the center, from which it will eventually swing too far to the left again. I see this. I will go to sleep tonight putting colors and sounds to it in my imagination. Your piece drew me deeper into this drama, where the truth lies. Bravo!
