MCCAIN

No hero

The casting of McCain as a “maverick” is an act of deception

15-Sep-2008 (29 comments)
The Republican presidential candidate John Sidney McCain III is a con man. The term “con man” comes from “confidence man,” an individual who swindles his victim by first gaining the mark’s trust. Having nothing to do with the word convict, a prisoner, nowadays, the term “con man” refers to anyone who is all about deceit and lies, it is about passing fiction for reality, or inventing a myth to bolster one’s image. John McCain is a “con man” extraordinaire: his Vietnam War legacy as accepted by supporters, the media and even his sheepish opponents is not what it seems. McCain fancies himself as war hero. His supporters do not waste any moment to remind the public that he was an ex-POW (prisoner of war), who spent time at the “Hanoi Hilton,” the infamous Hoa Lo Prison, where the North Vietnamese held the American prisoners of war>>>

PALIN

Smart choice

Palin has gained so much star-status that even Mr Obama has started directly attacking her!

15-Sep-2008 (22 comments)
McCain's choice for VP was a very smart move. This presidential campaign will be something to remember and something quite interesting for future political advisors and analysts to ponder about. What Mr McCain did was to borrow almost everything Mr Obama was successful with, without giving up any of what he already had. McCain was known for a few things, whether true or not! He was, and is, quite an old man, a white Christian, which bodes well with most Americans (who are also white Christians), a known maverick among the Republicans and somebody who has some strong principles (sometimes more conservative, other times more liberal), and he usually acts according to those principles. He didn't have Obama's youth, and Obama's slogan of change, and these two went together>>>

یکی‌ از دوستان میگفت "بعد از انقلاب دور دور ترک هاست"

این روز‌ها از صدقه سر یکی‌ از این پایگاه‌های اینترنتی، کانال های تلویزیونی داخل ایران را تماشا می‌کنم. هر شب یک چند دقیقه‌ای از این کانال به آن کانال میروم تا ببینم چه به خورد این ملت بد بخت میدهند. برنامه‌ها که البته اکثرا همه مزخرف و بی‌ محتوا هستند ولی‌ نکته‌ای که جلب توجه می‌کند کثرت تعداد گویندگان و مجریان ترک در صدا و سیمای جمهوری اسلامی است. بعضی‌ که بطور کلی لهجه دارند و دیگران که لهجه را به قول خارجی‌‌ها "ماسک" کرده اند،شکل و شمایلشان داد میزند که از خطه اذربایجان به تهران آمده اند. وقتی‌ هم که گزارشگران برای تهیه گزارش به میان مردم تهران میروند، که دیگر واویلا، انگار از قلب تبریز گزارش میکنند. البته اشکالی ندارد. یعنی‌ بنده سگ که باشم که بخواهم اشکال بتراشم.>>>

ERECT

Viva Viagra

Say no to erectile dysfunction

15-Sep-2008 (4 comments)
We are the nation of forward lookers. Often we wish things happen before their time. We sell Sunday news paper on Saturday. We wish our colleagues and coworkers a nice weekend at the middle of the week. We sell next year’s models of automobiles few months before the end of this year and books that are released this year are copyrighted for next year. What if we sell wine before its time? Wouldn’t that be something else with poor quality and bitter taste? What if a child is born today and his birth date is moved a few months ahead. Does that make him younger or that is plainly weird? We may even invent a solution for imaginary problems that have not materialized yet. No no I am not talking about war with Iraq and preemptive strike and WMD tale, I am talking about erectile dysfunction, ED>>>

STORY

A Good Night's Sleep

You had to do your best in whatever country you were in, and we had to do our best in America

15-Sep-2008
"Let's go to an American bar and have an American beer," I said. "All right," he said. I could see he was thinking of why did somebody have to stop going to a bar and ordering a beer in order for somebody else to know what it was. Somehow I thought that if it really was like that, if there really was a time when everybody in the world could do that, could just walk right in and order a beer wherever they were, there wouldn't be any need for any beer to order. There was a way we could each walk into a bar individually - sit down, have a look around, check the score of the game - and there was a way we could walk in together. I felt sorry for him. I felt sorry for me too, and I felt sorry for everyone in the bar. I felt sorriest for them because at least we knew the value of a good night's sleep. It was a losing business to look at Americans and wonder what they thought of the war >>>
