How the hell did that impression ever get made?"The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights. Seriously. -

That would be me. The Heartland Cafe is a hippie-granola type place in Chicago with "natural" food and one hell of a beer selection. Before the micro brew fad caught on, it was the only place in the Midwest you could find a beer that didn't taste like piss and detergent. It has some ties to the Chicago left. Both TCP and I have eaten and drunk there, though not knowingly at the same time if ever.
Also, the t-shirt comment refers to Che t-shirts.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

I voted for Heartland Eater, because I like the name. But I know "night owl" refers to me.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

I'm strongly convinced Zkribbler is MrFun's DL, given his persistent lack of a clue.Originally posted by Cort Haus
My vote is shared between Arrian and Zkribbler. These guys come across as genuine moderates, and not zealots like many of the more "illiberal liberal" types on here - who can be liberal today, but neocon tomorrow.Comment

The great irony of all this is, the American political spectrum has shifted so far to the right that conservatism (as defined by AuH2O) is liberal now.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Spin it how ever you want Oggie but this boils down to posting a political hit piece in the OP and then whining when someone calls you on it. The rest of us have come to expect that out of you.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

Political hit piece????? What crack are you smoking??? It was a tribute article to Ford, one that invoked great healer references and common decency themes. Open and honest communicator mentionables. The right man for a troubled time. as it were.Originally posted by Oerdin

Only the likes of you could read it otherwise. And decide unlike any other poster in the thread to be hack about it.

yet in this very thread Odin has claimed that Hillary is NOT a liberal, despite her support for national health insurance, her opposition to ending the fixed benefit aspects of Soc Sec, etc, etc.Originally posted by chegitz guevara

Goldwaterism is only "liberal" today if you focus purely on civil liberties issues, and its not clear that that would have been that different in 1964 (except that at that time the fact that his civil libertarianism led to opposition to fair housing leg made it look conservative)"A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.
