Fascinating.

The use of strawmen arguments, when you put words into my mouth that I never said and proceed to tell me why those words are all manner of horrible, is dishonest in civil discourse. I appreciate refrain from such tactics.

Gotta get about 0:32 in. :D


The modern definition of "socialist" is anyone who's winning an argument against a tea-bagger.

I hate Obama's America. You're damn right about that.


Friday, May 28, 2010 - 18:26 To President Obama:
Mr. President, you're a god damn, mother fucking liar.
Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit.
... go fuck yourself, Mr. President.

Very much so.

But the question is, will NASA be able to relay this info to Muslim countries, and how will they get them to feel good about themselves ?

Rap, you're just like Niki, always with the politics.

Anyway, they have their own space agencies now. Welcome to the level playing field.

Barack Obama: Nasa must try to make Muslims 'feel good'


The head of the Nasa has said Barack Obama told him to make "reaching out to the Muslim world" one of the space agency's top priorities


By Toby Harnden in Washington 8:00PM BST 06 Jul 2010


Charles Bolden, a retired United States Marines Corps major-general and former astronaut, said in an interview with al-Jazeera that Nasa was not only a space exploration agency but also an "Earth improvement agency".
Mr Bolden said: "When I became the Nasa administrator, he [Mr Obama] charged me with three things.

"One, he wanted me to help reinspire children to want to get into science and math; he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering."

The first thing I thought of was the special I saw last night on Stephen Hawking, and his failing relevancy on the issues of black holes, and quantum physics in general.


But to keep it more broad based, I went w/ the Obama thing. My bad.

Rap

Didn't say Obama wasn't a political guy. I mean, he is, after all, the president. But there's part of the real world which is just science. I didn't see Islam in this, but some muslims might have seen god.

Strangely, it's more like an infinity symbol than anything else, it's somewhat like an electron orbital. I guess that's what it is, an electron orbital of a singularity.
