Can you imagine if they actually got their state finally?
Why I'd bet they'd be attacked almost immediately and declared dangerous and a bunch of terrorists by the United States and others who really aren't interested in peace and justice, but rather to keep things as they are, because it allows the right-wing elements to remain firmly in control, and to keep people divided, bitter, angry, and constantly full of hate and desire to continue to make war.
Some things don't really change, even after 65 years.
The thing I find fucking hypocritcal about the atypical right-wing responses (""The Palestinian people will wake up tomorrow and find that little about their lives has changed save that the prospects of a durable peace have only receded,", "hostile and poisonous," ) isn't the level of projection, but the lack of reason as to what's stalling 'talks'.
It's right in the article. I'll even put it in big bright letters.
"Peace talks have been stalled for two years, mainly over Israeli settlements in the West Bank, which have expanded despite being deemed illegal by most of the world. "
Gee, you think talking to someone who breaks into your house and start building their own inside of it makes you want to talk peace? But that's where things are.
And yet, the Palestinian response has been both clear and careful -
"As long as the Israelis are not committing atrocities, are not building settlements, are not violating international law, then we don't see any reason to go anywhere,"

Response to 'There's Only One Position and It's Filled'

Best way to think of Harper is - he’s Canada Dubya.
To right-wingers in America, George W. Bush represented the intersection of the movement’s three major areas – the foreign policy chickenhawks, the Evangelical Christians, and the corporate oligarchy (aka the establishment). That Bush through his personal life, or via his families’ political connections was able to unite all three of these under the banner of the Republican Party was Karl Rove’s third greatest political success (number 1 and 2 being getting Dubya installed into the White House via fixing numbers in the US Supreme Court, and Diebold). In many ways, Dubya represented the ultimate version of Nixon, Reagan and his father all put together. Combine that with controlling Congress and the Supreme Court and it’s clear to see - that was great for the right-wing. It was a complete disaster for everyone else on the planet. The untold damage these actions have caused throughout the world – we might never recover from.
The reason why the Republicans have not had someone in office as President since 2009 is largely because the establishment has come to the conclusion that the rest of us already came to in 2001, having someone like that in authority is disastrous for their existence.
Harper is the next generation version of Mulroney in that he’s been able to unite several factions across the right - the old factions of the Reform Party (which I think have many common intersections of beliefs not too dissimilar to the manufactured Tea Party movement in America), the Canadian corporate establishment, and just enough people still disenchanted with the Liberal Party via the Sponsorship Scandal to hold onto office. One key difference between Mulroney and Harper was that the former neutralized the Pequistes by integrating them into the party and making a lot of broken promises, while the latter simply have them scatter into irrelevant parties like the BQ, and now the NDP such that their influence is negligible.
What you’re seeing with the NDP and Liberals today, is exactly what happened to the Democratic Party during Dubya’s years in office – that is believed that because of his win, they needed to pander to the right-wing viewpoint/interests and subsequently abandon any left-leaning or progressive view. What ends up happening is – the establishment decides that it’s better to have real right-winger in office than a pretend one under the belief that the former will be more successful. This is where I think Canada is now.
In time, the Democrats learned that being a right-winger was fucking up the country, and rather than pander to that, it’d be better to pander to everyone else.
Since 2009, the biggest problem in America has been that because the corporate establishment has so much control over so many aspects of society, real progress beyond that is more or less held back.
What’s really needed both here and in Canada is a way for someone or a movement to really get people’s attention beyond a means the establishment can control. I’ve said it before – the only way any real progress is going to be made towards addressing society’s problems (be it local through global) is a movement that operates and reaches people to act beyond the establishment’s outlets of control. How to create such a movement that gets people to act but itself be neither co-opted by the establishment, nor corrupted to become something twisted and evil, is the question I ponder.

RIP Marvin Miller: 1917-2012.
If there is ever a situation where this whole Hall of Fame crap is exposed for the crap it really is, it's the fact that an institution that exist to recognize and celebrate those who made a significant impact fails to still yet even acknowledge Marvin Miller's contributions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Miller
Where ever he is today, I'm sure he doesn't give fuck either way. That's what I respect most.

Sometimes in life ...
... it's often not that we as people don't understand.
It's that often we don't want to accept. Case in point -

Names
Why is it some people have to fuck up their kids lives by giving them stupid names?
Or worse, why do people think it's okay to give themselves stupid nicknames?
Calling oneself after an animal I find quite moronic.
Case in point - women who are named Catherine (or Katherine) who go by the name 'Cat' or 'Kat'.
New flash - It's isn't cute or smart, or cool. It sounds stupid to name (or nickname) oneself after a domesticated animal. I wonder if people name their kids 'Gerbil' or 'Hamster'? Or do people find it cool to call themselves 'Iguana'?
I mean really - why? Do you want your kids to be beaten up at school? I'm not saying it's right, but let's face it, oftentimes kids can be extremely cruel.
It's also a reminder to me that I possess no supernatural powers in that if I did, I'd rename all people who call themselves 'Cat' or 'Kat' to something less idiotic.
Granted there are worse things I suppose - naming one after a body of water ('Brook', 'River'), a state ('April', 'May', 'June'), or better still - women who use men's names (Michael, yes I've heard that one), a day of the week ('Wednesday', 'Thursday').

Beating up on Gaza for not getting way with Iran ...
Israeli right-wing leader fears upcoming re-election loss - beats up on Gaza as temper tantrum for losing out in backing Mittens, and over wanting to bomb Iran.
http://www.ips-dc.org/articles/israel_escalates_gaza_attack_with_assassination
I'm certainly no supporter of Hamas. And one can debate whether they are the right group to lead a nation. But it's the Palestinian residents of Gaza who are paying the price for this nutcase's rage and fear.
And as always, the US and other nation-states will stand by and do nothing to stop the continuing ethnic cleansing and apartheid regime. Because the Palestinians don't have oil, money, precious metals, or any other valuable items.
They simply exist where the Israeli right-wing doesn't want them.

Decks Cleared?
"Between the outcome of the election and the departure of Petraeus, President Obama now has the chance to take full control of his foreign policy. The neocons also find themselves sitting on the outside looking in more so than at any time since the 1970s when they emerged as a group of hawkish ex-Democrats and embittered ex-Leftists who defected to Ronald Reagan."
One can only hope.

The cost associated with not testing software ...
... in this case can cost one an election. Or at least it appears to have been somewhat of a case for Mittens.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Orca
http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/11/inside-team-romneys-whale-of-an-it-meltdown/
Oh and for those idiots who still believe that automation can replace a person when it comes to testing, there's this gem -
"You're telling me that software without QA turns out to be garbage? Unheard of!"

http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/11/inside-team-romneys-whale-of-an-it-meltdown/
Oh and for those idiots who still believe that automation can replace a person when it comes to testing, there's this gem -
"But Orca turned out to be toothless, thanks to a series of deployment blunders and network and system failures. While the system was stress-tested using automated testing tools, users received little or no advance training on the system. Crucially, there was no dry run to test how Orca would perform over the public Internet."Gee you'd think before going live with the system in action, you'd want to you know ... see what it's actually doing before going live. Thus -
"Throughout the day, the Orca Web page was repeatedly inaccessible. It remains unclear whether the issue was server load or a lack of available bandwidth, but the result was the same: Orca had not been tested under real-world conditions and repeatedly failed when it was needed the most."This is what you get -
Robert X. Cringely, writing in InfoWorld, concluded that "Everything in the Orca rollout went great, except for a failure to do any quality assurance, proof its documentation, or beta test in the seven months from conception to implementation. Whoever was behind Orca apparently also failed to hire a competent Web designer, anticipate server loads, beef up its bandwidth, or notify its ISP to expect a bump in traffic."[13] Sean Gallagher of Ars Technica commented that the key failure was the dependency on automated testing rigs, which "can't show what the system's performance will look like to the end user. And whatever testing environment Romney's campaign team and IT consultants used, it wasn't one that mimicked the conditions of Election Day. As a result, Orca's launch on Election Day was essentially a beta test of the software – not something most IT organizations would do in such a high-stakes environment.“[2]Priceless comment from Kani-
"You're telling me that software without QA turns out to be garbage? Unheard of!"

On offering advice to right-wingers ...
Here's one.
All well and good.
However I think a better thing to focus on should all be pushing the President on the things that ultimately affect us all - http://vultcult.blogspot.com/2012/11/three-things-obama-should-focus-on.html.

Super-Earth?
http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2012/11/08/super-earth.html
"An international team of astronomers has discovered what they are calling a new “super-Earth,” which is seven times the size of Earth and has the right conditions to support life.
Called HD40307g, the new planet exists in a zone of a nearby star and is part of a six-planet system."

Three things Obama should focus on.
Now that his second term is secured, these are what I think are the most pressing things that require immediate attention.
1. Stopping global warming. Hint - it affects us all. Obama should make the US the leaders in figuring this out.
2. Settling the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This involves a viable path to statehood for the Palestinians, security for the Israelis, and peace for both.
3. Enacting a 2nd Bill of Rights for Americans - including universal health coverage.
If he got these three things done, he'd be a true hero, and quite likely the greatest US President ever.

Prop 37 - post-mortem?
Officially as of this writing all the numbers aren't in, but overall it's not trending well.
Why you may ask? Well here's why -
Other food companies who contributed to the "no" campaign (but with checks of less than $150,000) included Sunny Delight Beverages, McCain Foods, Tree Top, Idahoan Foods, Richelieu Foods, Land O'Lakes, Hillshire Brands, Morton Salt, Clorox, Goya de Puerto Rico, Sargento and Godiva Chocolatier.
Think they spent enough? Think they were afraid? Yet look how close it came.
While they might be celebrating on the outside, you can bet that deep down they're waiting to see if supporters of Prop 37 are going to simply give up and pack it in.
If they do, then these corporations will indeed win, and we'll all lose. Perhaps that's something the Prop 37 supporters should think about, given how close the result was.
Perhaps they should consider this as merely a setback on the path to victory - and consider to try again.
