Matt Damon on Sarah Palin
Damon brings up some good points on Palin. Yes...absurdity, and scary.
"I want to know if she thinks dinosaurs were here four-thousand years ago...because she is going to have the nuclear codes."

Are you better off today than you were 8 years ago?
I'm looking forward to a president who understands that there are intelligent ways to solve problems, rather than simply making knee-jerk decisions that sound good. I'm looking forward to a president who will rebuild our reputation in the world -- not only do our enemies resent us, but our allies despise us. I'm looking forward to a president who relies on empirical research and the scientific consensus to make informed decisions. I'm looking forward to a president who recognizes that evolution underlies all of science and is not living in a backward world of superstition and creationism that was put to rest 150 years ago. I'm looking forward to a president who will do what works to invigorate the economy. I'm looking forward to a president who will invest in new technologies and science to drive our economy to make us competitive again in the world.
I look forward to a president who understands a balanced approach to free trade and its effects on our economy at home. I look forward to a president who can diffuse Russia. I look forward to a president who can strengthen youths' desire to become productive men -- at home and in the middle east. I look forward to a president who neither placates nor outwardly despises the people stifled by the entitlement cultures promoted by the government. I look forward to a president who understands that modern warfare requires much more covert than overt ops and involves much more economic pressures and forces than ever. I look forward to a president who turns responsibility over to the "owners" of the country relies on the support of the rule of law as the accepted governance of the country, rather than using the US military as the police. I look forward to a president who values high-quality education as the great equalizer. I look forward to a president who understands that the health insurance system has made us more unhealthy. I look forward to a president who understands the impact of environmental pollutants and that many children (the poor are over-represented) have far too many chemicals coursing through their growing bodies.
I look forward to a president who contributes to operating on America being seen as the great beacon of democracy, equality, and freedom around the world instead of the brutalizing bully for oil that it has become. I look forward to a president who looks for unchecked power as leading necessarily to complete corruption -- which is exactly why our economy is in the dire straights it is in now -- due to banks and investment firms marginally operating within weak laws. I look forward to a president who realizes that trickle-down means trickle-out and that the application of this theory has compromised the infrastructure for entrepreneurship which has stymied our country. I look forward to a president who is not in the pocket of entrenched lobbyists and actively changes the "a-law-for-the-cash" congress. Most of all, I look forward to a president who acts from a set of timeless principles with good judgment, rather than merely talking about "values" buzzwords and fundamentalist bible-beating and using fear to propel the emotions of the people.

Radiohead Nude Remix
A friend sent this to me today. It a remix of a Radiohead song created with old computer hardware...very cool. It's worth a listen if you have a moment. While you wait for the song to start (@ 01:10) read the story behind it. The remix is perfect for Radiohead.

Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson
We had a chance to go see Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson, director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City and TV host of NOVA scienceNOW on PBS, at the Palladium Theater in St. Petersburg, FL last week. Below is a video of Dr. Tyson answering a question about dark matter and the speed of light.

Perfect Me Ann Coulter
Again, this is great...very funny, and in my Happy Hanukkah video theme...
Satirist/singer/guitar player Leah Kauffman sings and asks Ann Coulter to perfect her. I think she (Leah) really puts things in the right perspective.
Rock On!
Happy Hanukkah!
We were laughing out loud watching this. I thought it was appropriate being Hanukkah and all.

Classic warning signs...
How to shut down democracy and begin fascism: Step 1, invoke threat; Step 2, establish secret prisons, Step 3, develop paramilitary (contractor killers), Step 4, surveil citizens... etc. Classic warning signs...video with Naomi Wolf:

Put $ where mouth is by actually being a beacon of democratic values for the world. Anyone of us can be yanked off to a secret prison with no recourse, mistakes or no. Thought we covered this in 1215 with the Magna Carta. We've rewound western civilization by 700 years: we're pre-Enlightenment, baby. Feel like a "patriot" now?

Carpe Diem
I was showed this to me today and we thought it was pretty good. It's too bad we are not conscious of this point more often...especially in America it seems. The voice-over is Alan Watts and the production/animation is by Trey and Matt of South Park fame.

Dick Cheney is right
Unbelievable! ...well, maybe a little believable. I do not think this would be the first time this administration has contradicted itself.
Cheney in 1994 on Iraq:
From YouTube:
Video of and interview with Vice President Cheney in 1994 saying that invading Iraq would create a quagmire. (This video aired on C-Span)
