thank you populist.

back in the BOD (thank you Mogumbo), the talk was that, in the event of a fullscale nuclear war, the lucky ones would be the ones killed instantly.

Obama has an incredible opportunity. He could go down in history not only as the first black US president but also the one with the vision and balls to lead us into a sustainable future. But thus far it appears that he is instead squandering his efforts on trying to salvage an unsalvagable, unsustainable status quo.
So, our leaders are failing us. SSDD, right? Let's do what WE can do to make a better world. If the people lead, maybe the leaders will follow.
