The bloody trouble is we are only alive when we’re half dead trying to get a paragraph right. - Paul Scott
11 vs 11 by my count. Obama will most likely win this next election pretty easily, but there is some time to go. Let's see what a default does to the economy over the next year and a half.

"If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."

Who was the black nutjob that prohibition of Islam should be allowed as the states may will it ?
Edit: I see it was about mosques, not Islam and the nutjob was named Herman Cain.
Am I wrong to remember another Cain who was a Republican ?

Obama since he more or less saved the Midwest and for the lack of a better candidate.
Still 12 to 12. Let's see how these numbers hold up if Obama and the Democrats and the republicans allows us to default.

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
