Precised notes

I watch the Americans with a hawkeye. They have the most powerful opinion-making machine in the world. Hollywood. It has flawless function, unmeasured consequences, opaque agendas and suffers not a jot of retaliation because of its barely-perceptible techniques. So clever.

This site watches America: Counterbias. And this guy is a brilliant columnist there: Mel Seesholtz

Topics he writes on, usually all in one article:

• Homosexuality
• Theocracy
• Tyranny

Quote

In the brave new world of ASS BS (AmericanStupidSpeak BullShit), "uniter" refers to someone who divides the global community by invading two sovereign non-Christian nations and then divides the population of his own country into heterosexuals who have civil rights and homosexuals who do not. The ASS etymology of "uniter" derives from earlier BS:

"I don't know that atheists should be considered citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God." - George H. W. Bush.
