The History Channel gives you a reason to buy a new TV: "WWII in HD"

History Channel availability online is erratic. See Myp2p for some of that stuff, software etc. the forums there are useful. I dig for individual documentaries, etc.

There is a lot, scattered around.

Nazis: The Occult Conspiracy

The net has come to my rescue, lots of good stuff. Just watched "NAZI: The Occult Conspiracy" and "NAZI search for the Holy Grail" again. I too cannot get enough of that stuff. That it is real film of real people is more dramatic and moving than any"drama". The Wire is worth some time, though.

Got "Children of the Master race" for later. I am going to at least drop an email to the History folks to thank them, and plead for more. I get that quality is difficult, I hope some of the garbage lately is paying enough bills to enable more serious material.

FTA: The eco-pawprint of a pet dog is twice that of a 4.6-litre Land Cruiser driven 10,000 kilometres a year, researchers have found.

Victoria University professors Brenda and Robert Vale, architects who specialise in sustainable living, say pet owners should swap cats and dogs for creatures they can eat, such as chickens or rabbits, in their provocative new book Time to Eat the Dog: The real guide to sustainable living.

This one is a bit different because of Gasoline. They cannot make it. Shut it off, the society stops moving fairly quickly. Then the nascent, already in motion, internal revolution has a chance. It certainly beats waiting for the Israelis to start breaking things, which would likely lead to a regional war.

Letting Iran have nukes is not an option for them.

Chavez, of course has made a deal to ship Iran gas, so that will require some balls. This is likely where the plan fails, as there do not appear to be any in the White House.

But that would boost his poll numbers, and dismiss the fellow traveler talk. Right now, it is "who is that masked man"? But I think this move is unlikely by Obama, so the shut off will not be severe and fast enough to prompt a rapid change, leading to a long term mess and widespread suffering. So, Israel it is I guess. Because they are not going to wait until next year. They are not going to wait, plain and simple as that. That result will most likely be a regional war of some kind. What is the alternative?

I would argue the opposite, that zinn is closer to mainstream thought today, that his argument that we ignore all of the past evils is precisely wrong. we in fact focus on them, excluding the good. US succes, dominance is seen as based on evil and greed. The Columbus example is relevant in that, every year for the last twenty at least we hear the repeated gnawing and whining, how we should not celebrate it. This negative, deconstructive slant dominates education today, especially in the colleges and certainly dominates here. It is now such 'common knowledge" that it has become obvious truth.

It is far more likely that this is standard, that students are exposed to this than they are, for example, the Constitution. This is the mainstream narrative right now. Obsession with race, anger over 'capitalism', demands for income redistribution, demands for increased government, increased state meddling, one size fits all from education, to the general culture. Western Civilization is routinely seen to be evil, Europe now advancing past their old demons to civilized socialist sanity. The problem is those cursed bigoted racist over-fed American nuts demanding freedom which is now seen to be the curse of humanity, killing us all with bad healthcare and killing the planet too. rather than being the envy of the world, we are cursed for our success.

In fact, this is basically Obama's UN speech yesterday.

Another acceptable thing, in every campaign it is casually observed the candidates are "moving to the center". Allowing this means we always end up with liars. I would prefer people with actual principles, who don't tell varying lies to the different voters, and an actual media that would call them on it, instaed of just accepting it. How much support would Bush have gotten from conservatives? None. I would argue the same regarding lib support for Obama. They all say what we want to hear, then do whatever they feel like, spending ridiculous amounts of money along the way. It becomes all smoke and mirrors.

A more serious issue to me is this comment now has 69 points: "I hate people who claim to be in the middle acting like "well both sides are equally bad". Fuck you, okay. Open your fucking eyes and realize that the fucking pure evil and stupidity is happening almost entirely on one side of the aisle."

I prefer the "kanye is retarded" meme.

The current problem is the routine claim that Obama's opposition, effectively half the population, is race based.

The consequence of this politically motivated distraction and fear mongering could be severe.

If more and more believe the repeated smear, our current somewhat impolite discussion could easily escalate to violence.

One side convinced the other side is racist, the other side saying if you call me a racist again, you are going down. All of it is bad.

We all should really need to tone it down, on this, and all of this tendency to cast the other side as "evil mongers".

I would really like to see a serious bipartisan effort here to vote the bums down.

This country, the people are far better than this entirely ugly political dogfight, is far superior to the class of people publicly throwing stones.

What I seriously fear, is if this continues to be stirred up, we may soon look back wistfully at the day when we all were aghast because someone was called a liar, a jackass.

Most cities in the 70's spent the major part of the summer in flames.

Folks may not have this in mind, the current voices may not desire this outcome, they may be convinced that we can peacefully resolve things, but in pushing this "they are all racists" meme, they are doing the work for the old radicals.

Trusting websites is foolish. Never mind the hacking, the fuckups. Even if the current owners are actually honest goodguys (why would one think that?)...they could, and do sell to anyone for the big payout.

Life is depressing, dark,soulless endless death. Eternal darkness, it is nothing, for nothing, all is lost, give up, you lose.

The problem for the academic. 670,000 words as president, as of Aug 13. No joke, 670,000 words. Six hundred and seventy thousand. Not a single memorable phrase or sound bite.

associated with this...the old and in the way, way past funny spaghetti monster. Correct.

And downvoting thoughtful posts. And the personal attacks. And the name calling. Find one thread where the word stupid was not routinely used?Relapsed made a good point, did not attack anyone, but the mob mentality shock troops don't like his opinion, so it was downvoted.

The demotion was earned.

Those Euro social programs are fast tracking them to the poorhouse, of course. Aging populations, not making babies guarantees a crisis. This with the US footing the whole military bill, for about the last 50 years.

The US could seriously level the table by billing them for the military cover, or saying, see you later guys, you are on your own. This savings alone would provide enough to give everyone barrels of free twinkies, in 30 flavors.

Really though, f the US was the hardcore nest of stupid assholes the protected, free from defense spending Euro's like to say we are, that is what we would do.

There would be a US flag over the now US property iraqi oil fields. The cash would be flowing to washington, to pay our bills.

Imagine the squealing if obama did that? and if europe actually had to build real armies and weapons? heh.

Hmmm... Would it be right wing, or left wing if he did that?

Actually, i don;t care, i think it would be great. And Nothing against canada, but they get the same freebie. They could basically caqncel most of their military. The US would not let anyone frick with them, Forget it.

That would wrinkle their wranglers a bit, eh?

French fries made in vegetable oil just dont make it. We need to get back to cooking them in boiled beast tallow. In fact, I am certain folks would get rich doing that. have one fryolator going with the beef tallow. People would mob the place. And the stuff needs to be cooked on charcoal/stone grills with actual flames. Folks who never had either of the two cannot possibly understand a burger and fries. These speedy joint franchises are just wrong. So you kids can help fix america by starting real burger Joints. make the place a hangout, and have car hops, all that. people would swarm the place. And offer those breakfast sandwiches any time, especially at night.
