| I've recently come to the conclusion that we won't see any real significant social changes in America until most of the baby boomers are either dead or out of political office. One social issue that really bugs me is how children are used as a tool for policy reform by both the Right and the Left. C... |

I can remember a few months ago Rick Perry said he wanted to subvert the powers of the judiciary so that Congress could pass laws that might otherwise be deemed unconstitutional, because he feels that was the original intent of the Founding Fathers when they dev... |

| They ruled the Soviet Union and look how that turned out. Soviets. They were a cult of personality over a single idiot. Making a god of single authority is a concept radically opposed to true atheism. If you want to know what happens when Christianity rules the world, refer to the medieval ages, wh... |

| Alien Resurrection The Stand miniseries He doesn't do nearly enough R-rated movies, or adult-oriented TV shows ( Baywatch Nights , anyone?).

| This one looks cool (hopefully better than GTA IV). I wish they would make another sequel to Vice City (still set in the 80s), and maybe with some Caribbean locals as part of the environment. |

Technically, they're totalitarian rather than fascist. Fascism puts a lot of emphasis on national or ethnic identity, whereas the Zeitgeist movement tr... |

| From what I've read, Peter Joseph originally made the first film for some art project (he was originally an artist/musician). But after people took it seriously, he embraced his status as a cult guru. I believe the same thing happened to Ayn Rand. |

| According to Reese in the first movie, "nothing dead will go." I doubt Cameron thought much about it, though. Our bodies are covered with lots of dead skin, and the skeletons of the terminators are dead, so I guess all you would have to do to time travel with some clothes or weapons is cover them w... |
