Latest Bush-bill says NSA,CIA and Pentagon can monitor
or attack overseas internet services, like in Europe.
French,British and German Governments don't seem to
mind much.

Question(s): Are European Governments allowed to monitor or attack US internet services and is this how Bush plans to edit the American public?

i forget the man who wrote this, and i will probably slaughter what he said--but the meaning of what he said should be apparent:

a group of 10 will enjoy a spirited debate, a class of 30 will experience fewer questions (less than 6).

a class of 100 should expect no more than 12 opposing points of view--much less, "hands in the air" questioning what is being taught.

a group of 600 (average university class size) will experience less than 1/100th the questioning of what is taught.

1,000 people in a group need to be told what to do, they also may need to be told what to think.

10,000 people gathered for something, are basically clueless. they are easily influenced, and respond only to "mass" movements.

100,000 is a mass of people that needs to be controlled (any nfl game). they watch, they eat, they leave.

1,000,000 could be inducive of the million man march, they were organized, they were supposed to be upset/angry, and the largest words spoken from any bullhorn near that crowd contained no more than 6 letters.

10,000,000 people in one area might frighten even the most solidified mayor--but new york does its dumbest mayor proud every day, he just keeps spewing out the most calming and mind-numbing shit he can think of!

100,000,000 represents the average amount of americans that watch their televisions every day. these MUST be the most idiotic, dull, repetitive shows of splendor, and distraction.

1,000,000,000 people cant be wrong? they all eat rice, right (china)?

10,000,000,000 may not equal the end of the world (food- wise), but it should wake us up to the fact that nobody will be thinking about ANYTHING at that point!




---the more people you address, the more idiotic is your audience, i will enjoy my 4 freinds here at my home, a lost art in the making!

Hi Bill, great to have you back!

While the Blogga thing is great, I miss the New Rules! Are you not doing them because of the Writer's Strike? Hope you can get them back as they are the 'treat' at the end of each show.

Thanks,
Mark Hetherington, Natick, MA

He is not allowed to leave the country.
C Bunny. I've been out of touch for 12 years things may have changed. I worked 20 years though and in those twenty years saw a lot of changes. I beleve 9/11 and the hurricanes softened the hard nosed dinosours we used to have and personally I was probably one of them!!!
But I learned from my predecessors. I had a different management position and most of the Account Executives
or Marketeer were men. It's a different world. I almost dont even think o CORPORATE AMERICA as Corporate AMERICA any more. Most of our corporations can be traced back to holding companies and are owned by Germany or other Nations. Not many true American owned corporations left. Sad but true. That's what irritates me when the corporations get tax breaks. The have non cappe profits no regulations and the profits are not coming back to America our taxes go to foot the bill but it doesnt come back in wages or profits to actual Americans. Add to that the outsourcing of jobs. Its a mess. The Clinton Years are ooking prett good righ now compared to the last 7. I hated him then. I appreciate him now I personally do not believe there would have been an ARAB attack on America if the guy we all elected would have become president. Al Gore. And now Bush is over there stirring up more hate
with his sorry but in Arabia. They want America out of the middle east they do not want to be occupied by Dick Cheny and the Bush's. And you really cant blame them when all the world sees of America is Paris Hilton for morals.

YAPOIF

Yet Another Part of Iraq Fallout. Bush wants to continue the war, so Democrats gouged him for it.

One big fat fucking donkey.

National budget is in the trillions. Latest 3500 page
non-defence budget(including pork-barrel spending)
was over-budget @ 550 billion. Is it the pork-spending
that "stings" the most or the clandestine funding
vanishing the most?
