At least he would have killed or condemned to the Gulag the generation of European intellectuals who would have made his rule possible and, in the way history actually worked out, ended up implacably resenting the USA and leading their own continent into cultural suicide. <br /><br />And, perhaps, it would've been a good idea after World War II, to have let southern Azerbaijan and Iranian Kordestan join "the fraternal embrace of Soviet peoples"--and for the Soviet Union to have met its Afghanistan a bit further to the south and west during the 1950's and '60's.

For a fortnight now the rumor is that Chavez is only "alive" thanks to some machinery. Why oh why can't some janitor (are they still called that?) remove the plug so he can power his vacuum cleaner? (I know, that sight gag has already been used, but it is apt.) How fitting that this coward (read about the coup attempt during which he hid out) is denied his chance to go down in Bolivarian glory and just quietly slips away. I don't mean to be grim, or to speak ill of the dead, but Hugo Chavez is not my favorite person.

Personally, put me down for incineration, if this is not too personal. Besides, it may help forestall the latest approaching ice age a bit, maybe a microsecond or two. Was delighted to see an explanation for a further reason why many of us enjoy your style, etc. I too had a similar schooling experience, but mine was at 2 years of CIT, then to accounting and business. But oh how the science, engineering, and math have been useful for much the same reasons. Actually, I’m considering as to how you may be a budding Donald P. Belisarius, for all we know, given the many adventures, experience, and scribing talents, similar to DPB. Then we’ll be able to say we knew ye’ when.<br /><br />I visit here to learn, restore sanity, and to escape and revel into your land of relative reality and cordiality, with people who don't quake and wilt at the sight of a gun, and know how valuable a tool and otherwise fun they can be, also to escape for a brief moment in time from the real reality of moonbat heaven such as the regime has become, and from the way too real reality of the open invitation extended to our enemies, the socialists, marxists, leftists, and theocrat totalitarian controlling dictating butchers of the globe to seemingly just walk right in, since they are feted with lunches, dinners and parties in the WH, these days, and removed in security training courses from definition, characterization, and even from mere existence, thanks to a likeminded (to his guests) emperor, who enjoys spending money, ours not his, unimaginably more than even I did, and loves executive action even more! I mean, this guy is an “executive action hero” if there ever was one. You know, Cap’n Spendthrift, (over you) at “your” command, so to speak!<br /><br />Out there in the howling wilderness, there are many big hats on dangerously empty skulled heads, these days!
