I'll let the (trying his best) Olberman to make the main point but add that rightwing party members of the Phil and Hist in TCD are doing the same job these 527 ads are doing in America. TCD phil or hist wheeled out Andrem Choudry to spout old scarey stuff about Islam for like the third year and row the other night, I guess they can't find anyother fool to turn up for their pretend debate/cirucs, while they pretned it to be grown up by wearing tuxes..All groups should be very selective in who they invite to talk at meetings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUn7bw2QLlc read full story / add a comment

Bertie Ahern wants to throw out the 'stupid ol' pencils,' and bring in electronic voting. But we would be stupider than the pencils if we fall for this. Decisions by many US states to convert to electronic voting machines have yielded new concerns about whether they are secure and accurate, about paper records as backup proof and -- this year -- about whether the electronic or paper record should be considered the official tally if a candidate demands a recount. And on a Utube video, a computer software expert and whistleblower reveals to a congressional committee how he was asked to design a simple system to rig electronic votiing in Florida. And it wasn't hard to flip a 51/49 vote either way, with no one the wiser. when electronic voting is brought in the door, democracy goes out the window. read full story / add a comment

I suggest pulling coalition forces out of the inhabited areas of Iraq and redeploying them to the desert. read full story / add a comment
