And you're clearly misunderstanding that reflection is our way of protecting ourselves from physical and mental harm. It could also be used for empathic humans to avoid causing harm to others.

 

ummm, yeah no. The idea that anyone knows what a Gore or Kerry presidency would look like and what different

or similar problems would have arisen and how they would be handled is flabbergastingly

absurd. The idea that anyone knows what will unfold in an Obama or McCain presidency is absurd. People vote

their conscience and the chips fall where they fall.

Got you a nice full length one, Jules.

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me.

 

That is a good point. We differ on the effectiveness of Gdub's 8 years in office.

Even if I think the last 8 years was a complete shitstorm, it doesn't mean my vote was a mistake.

Your posts are entertaining, at best.

 

Thanks for the vote. I could whip out my philosophy degree or my professional affiliations for my posts on this message board

affiliated with an obscure alt.country band, but I prefer to play the role of village idiot. It's just a role though.

We differ there as well. The style of governing the GOP is currently using is imperialistic. It is destroying our country and others. At this point, why would I decide to support it?

At the risk of making the granting institutions look bad?

You don't have to. But others don't have to agree with you either. And the idea that they should look

back on what they thought four or eight years ago is asking them to disparage themselves, and your

subsequent attempt to paint that as 'self reflection' is disingenuous. Other than that I couldn't really

care less who you of Jules vote for or why (that Jude is a prick though).

I care. I live in the U.S.

 

I look back at 00' and say to myself, "why didn't you vote?" Look at what this idiot is doing to our country. This is reflection, not disparaging or beating myself up. It is a statement that says let's not repeat that. Do you continue to burn your hand with hot water to avoid calling yourself stupid?

 

In 04' I voted for the limpass Kerry to keep idiot from continuing. My reflection created a future action. It failed, but at this point a vote for the GOP still does not make sense to me.

ergo, those who think different don't care and should live elsewhere.

 

good stuff.

 

I trust Dr. Garvin would still be proud of me.
