return from self-abuse

well after not drinking an ounce of alcohol on saturday and sunday my brain seems to have to returned to a some what normal state.

Before you decide not to read any futher, here is an article about Robery Kennedy Jr.'s (a.k.a JFK's brother Bobby Kennedy' son ) feelings about american and its current fascist regime.

I saw the movei Pi for the first time last night, and I fucking loved it. OOhh such a cool movie, and reccomend it to all.
Here is a decent website that talks about Pi but it has an annoying french computer voice that lists out the # of pi. Right click on it, and it should shut up.

For those of you who remember movies like terminator or short circut, this "robot soldier" should look fairly familiar. It seems the american government has found a solution around the problem of troops dying. I am very curious to see how it will perform against the insurgents. I'm sure they won't have a hard time destroying this $200,000 killing machine, made by the lovely fuckers at the Carlyle Group.
If you don't know anything about the Caryle Group, I highly reccomend renting the film (though it maybe hard to find) "the world according to Bush". You can also see how the Martin Government is losely associated with this group of warmongering profetiers, via the newly appointed Canadian Ambassador to the United States (effective March 1st) Frank McKenna, who was a member of the Advisory Board for Carlyle.
Having important figures of our government being in bed with the Bush administration is the worst possible thing we can have our government do.
For all of you Liberal/Conservative supporters that think we should be getting closer with the current American administration... I ask you, for what purpose? To stop the ban on beef? The Brits went along with the Yanks in Iraq, and what have they recived in return?

When Brian Mulroney had his head up Reagan ass what did we get in return? NAFTA, and what has NAFTA done for the Canadian economy? We still don't have any guranteed access to American markets... and i point to cases such as the following in regards to the Chapter 11 rule in NAFTA:

The first major case, the notorious suit of the Ethyl Corporation over the banning -- on the grounds that it was a neurotoxin -- of the gasoline additive MMT, settled out of court by Canada with a USD $13 million payment and an apology, assaulted Canadian health and environmental governance. It revealed, Clarkson finds, "how Canadian environmental policy, once thought to be the purview of the sovereign legislature, has been taken hostage by continental governance. Under the superconstitutional aegis of Chapter 11, the issue is no longer the classic Canadian question of which government -- federal or provincial -- can initiate an environmental regulation. The issue now has become whether any government could initiate such legislation if it jeopardizes the interests of a foreign company." The polluters, he notes, end up "being paid to keep on polluting."

Agghhh this is getting to long...

For those of you, that still know very little about Dick Cheney, the Vice President of the United States, click here and read me.
