Dymaxion World: Rant
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2008/08/rant.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. To vote for Barack Obama.". Well, of course you don't have to. But Democrats - especially Democrats! Who spent the last 8 years blaming Ralph Nader and his vanity-quest/Republican-care-package for all that has come since have no reason doing anything at this point other than supporting Barack Obama,. If they're at all interested in the consequences of more GOP governance. Accomodating than the current occupant? If you don't plan to vote for Barack Obama, not only are you not s...

Dymaxion World: And my history of prognostication continues to be somewhat less than 30% accurate
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2010/10/and-my-history-of-prognostication.html
Monday, October 25, 2010. And my history of prognostication continues to be somewhat less than 30% accurate. But hey, when you're wrong 70% of the time you're right 30% of the time, right?

Dymaxion World: September 2010
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Every country has its own version of the Bush Administration. And some days I want to expand that and say every. Does But lets talk China for a moment. Apparently, the Americans are suddenly concerned that China, having gone hot and cold in regional politics, is going cold again. Of course, it's just possible the Chinese have actual reasons for what they're doing. What's really rich is hearing US policy makers describe China's foreign policy as "aggressive and arrogant"....

Dymaxion World: June 2010
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 27, 2010. Nine years to make a dustier Beirut. That's all I can think when I read this. ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistan is exploiting the troubled United States military effort in Afghanistan to drive home a political settlement with Afghanistan that would give Pakistan important influence there but is likely to undermine United States interests, Pakistani and American officials said. No, wait, that doesn't sound right at all. So, if this comes through the endgame will be more or less what pe...

Clearcut Blogging: Tory Sharia
http://clearcutblogging.blogspot.com/2006/02/tory-sharia.html
Seeing the Canadian political forest for the trees. Saturday, February 25, 2006. The state of South Dakota is in the process of turning back the clock to return to the Golden Age of Before Abortion. Unless someone breaks the governor's arms in the next short while, he will be signing into law the criminalization of all abortions except where the mother's health is at risk. Welcome to the 21st century. Which is so word-for-word an echo of the Islamic Wahhabist desire to return to their Golden Age. With th...

Dymaxion World: Let's not get ahead of ourselves here!
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2010/11/lets-not-get-ahead-of-ourselves-here.html
Monday, November 08, 2010. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here! The title of an academic paper. 8220;Financial Economists, Financial Interests and Dark Corners of the Meltdown: It’s Time to set Ethical Standards for the Economics Profession”. Yes, after almost 250 years since Adam Smith's "Wealth of Nations" and 140 years since "Das Kapital", it might. Be time to set some ethical standards for economics. Or maybe that might have been a century ago, it's so hard to tell. Crawl Across the Ocean.

Dymaxion World: Tab-clearing, Oct 18 2010
http://dymaxionworld.blogspot.com/2010/10/tab-clearing-oct-18-2010.html
Monday, October 18, 2010. Tab-clearing, Oct 18 2010. Boy, Europe and America's inability to make nice with Turkey is world-historical stupid. 8220;China must tax carbon”. Of course, once China does that we'll find another reason to do nothing. I have, on occasion, spouted off about parents who seem to be terrified about the world outside their doors. Chalk this up to that. Speaking of China, looks like the regime continues to rotate in new talent in an orderly manner. Genes are left wing.
