Ahhhh!!! The US is coming!!

Well, it's election day and it looks like I'm going to get my wish of a conservative minority. I'm still basing most of my opinions on the parties on James' observation that we basically have sane liars represented by the liberals vs. the honestly crazy conservatives. So, I'm hoping that getting knocked out of power will a cleanup of the liberal party so that I can stop voting conservative.
I'm also reading this book right now: Noam Chomsky "Hegemony or Survival" which is basically a listing (so far) of state terrorism and propaganda that has been funded by the US. It starts out in Cuba in the early 60's then moves to Nicaragua in the 80's then Iraq and Kosovo in the 90's and finally Iraq in the new millenium. Chomsky has been arguing so far that the US is by far the biggest threat to world peace and has been directly and indirectly responsible for tens of millions of deaths in the past 20 years, and then he cites evidence... it's the evidence which disturbs me the most because it's what keeps me from dismissing him as a leftist nut. Especially the recounting of Kosovo, because I remember that happening, but then he basically changed my mind on how I remember it going down and then provides evidence that the major news channels were... well, maybe not lying, but at least reproducing misinformation with regards to the conflict and it's resolution. In fact, just thinking about the book is making my stomach kind of ill... so, time for something completely different.
I'm almost done GTA... I may need to get a new game soon. I've heard that the game "Gun" is basically GTA on a horse. So, I may rent that from Rogers tonight and give it a try.
I'm also on chapter... 8 I think... of Knife of Dreams. So far it's been much more energetic than the past few books of the Wheel of Time.
Also, I know that I said in my last post that Jim was the only one reading, and I've recieved some strongly worded emails since then. So, thank you everyone who has been reading. I'm really going to try hard to publish more often.
Drinky Drinky!
