The War Within, Continuing- a Candidate's Binary Issue
This e-mail exchange:
prompted some amplification- Barack Hussein Obama's church may not be to everyone's taste, but on the face of it seems relatively innocuous. I have no more objection to it than to a synagogue teaching Jewish history and Zionist philosophy, which is to say none. Reports of the minister hanging out with the likes of Louis Farrakhan are troubling, at the very least.
My objections to Sen. Obama stem from two major items: his politics, which are Socialist and anti-civil rights (remember the 2nd Amendment, Mr. Obama? It's a G-d -given Civil Right mixed in with all those other pesky things in the Constitution.); and his upbringing.
The politics don't require much discussion. I am poor and without medical insurance as a result of my choices. I don't insist that you pony up to pay for my health care, other than VA care I paid for in advance, like every other American Service person. I don't need more of my earnings seized to pay for sub-standard education. And I sure as hell don't need anyone telling me I'm no longer entitled to self-defense. As for the rest of Obama's positions, it should be clear to readers of this blog why I object to them.
The man's upbringing is a binary choice. Sen. Obama's father was a moslem. His step-father is a moslem. Obama attended a moslem parochial school in a predominantly moslem country, for whatever length of time. His Kenyan siblings and cousins appear to be moslems. By what we know of sharia law, that pretty much makes Mr. Obama a moslem. This fact is repeated frequently, worldwide, by moslem clergy and laity. If Sen. Obama became a Christian, of whatever denomination, that makes him a moslem apostate, free to be murdered at will by any practicing moslem; this little bit of sharia is also frequently repeated and defended by moslem clergy and laity worldwide.
Must all be quite the major headache for the Secret Service. Does the islamic world want to kill the man, or are they just waiting for him to come out of the closet?

Re: A Very Long Article On Obama
When you get the chance, it's very good.
He has never expressed any support for Israel has never disavowed his alleged ministers anti-Israel bias, nor has he mentioned his sugar daddy Soros' antipathy towards Israel. I think he is a stealth muslim, as his cousin is the loser in the Kenyan election, and his cuz signed an agreement with the muslim leadership in Kenya to introduce Sharia Law. I have seen the photos of B-HO campaigning for his cuz in '06 in Kenya.
His alleged church follows the doctrine of the Marxist liberation theology.
Later, dog.

Don't have time to do more than skim tonight; up against some deadlines. Bottom line for me on Obama: he's a fucking socialist louse. May be bright, personable, and all that, but at heart he is with those who wish to destroy America (and Israel in passing). Also- he is one of two things, very binary: he is either a moslem apostate, or a Manchurian Candidate. The facts of his upbringing and current proclaimed religious status allow no other conclusions (I know, it's all a Zionist plot).

New marching/running cadence-
Been at a variety of meetings this week, as well as dealing with continuing effects of an organizational train wreck. As I was climbing into the POV after yesterday's staff meeting, thinking about ongoing Charlie Foxtrot drills, this just popped into my head as a cadence:
Charlie Foxtrot is my friend
Seein' him daily's becomin' a trend.
Sound off, F*** YOU,
Sound off, A**hole
Break it on down-
Char-lie
Fox-trot,
F*** You!

Everybody knows it's a Really Bad Idea to give an A.I. any effector mechanisms to interact with the outside world.....
......more news from the nascent Terminator Universe:
On a forum I frequent, a request for a movie reference inspired me to get on my soapbox about everybody knowing it's a Really Bad Idea to give an A.I. any effector mechanisms to interact with the outside world. I have lined out the other participants' names, and made some minor edits. I hope it is easy to follow. You'll never look at your QuadCore the same way again.......

FASTACWould you like to play Global Thermonuclear War?_________This has been driving mne nuts, an I hope you guys can help.
There is a movie from the late 60's or 70's about a computer that takes over and holds a group of scientists hostage and threatens the world. I saw parts of it years ago on late night TV and I can't recall the name. I would love to watch the whole thing, but I don't even know the title.
Any help would be appreciated.
The Forbin Project http://imdb.com/title/tt0064177/FASTAC
No competition. I was just roping in the link, as well. Liked the novel better.
On a related note, just finished watching the first two episodes of The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Shows promise [watched 3rd episode last night. Living up to the promise].
/everybody knows it's a Really Bad Idea to give an A.I. any effector mechanisms to interact with the outside worldI was thinking of the convergence of actual technologies- the military autonomous vehicles project (M113-sized [since I last looked into this, the size of autonomous vehicles has shrunk quite a bit; the result, no doubt, of smaller comps and better battery technology]), armed robots (adapted from telepresence EOD robots), improved pattern-matching software (facial recognition, etc.), faster CPUs (Intel Quad-Cores), the Japanese (and one American's) obsession with anthropomorphic machines.... You can damn near build a killer robot today with off-the-shelf tech. The Terminator Universe postulates this convergence becoming self-aware in 2011. I don't know about that, but most of the tech exists today to build a hunter-killer with a set group of faces to look for.
