The politics of mmmmm feelin' good

[cyrano]

Okay, so I apparently overshared this morning.
I'll stick to polemic and rhetoric.

I read this article, about a global advisory body, and thought to myself "Well, um, if we want to spread democracy, then this sounds like a good thing, right?"
Beyond that I'm not certain of my impressions on the idea.

Day..... Seventeen... plus thirty.... carry the..... Fifty-Two
In Operation Supreme Court Freedom.
Number of liberal Supreme Court Justices struck dead or retired:0

This leads us to one of two conclusions, Pat.
1: God decided that you just haven't earned it yet, baby.
Of course, God being Omniscient, that means he knew all along you were going to fail and decided to let the bad judges stay in office despite their evil intent toward this country and its God-fearing inhabitants.
2: No matter how hard you pray, God doesn't give a rat's ass about who's on the Supreme Court.
It'd sure explain how Clarence Thomas avoids getting struck by lightning.

I've noticed myself that the postings I put the most work and/or emotion into rarely draw comments. Throw up one offhanded link and everyone has something to say about it. Puzzling.

I read something in a random livejournal (well, it was linked to some lj friend's page, but I don't remember which now) that people feel uncomfortable commenting on deeply emotional issues so those entries get the least amount of feedback. Yet, I've also seen many people, including myself, wanting feedback on emotional or serious issues. It is an unrewarding dichotomy.
