Putin and Powell and Pervez

It looks as if Bush has sent Colin Powell to stir up a little more friction with Russia, telling them to shape up on the "democracy" thing. Powell has sent a message to Russia though, not to worry that the US will set up bases in Georgia. He says there is no plan for that. Sure, but what about the rest of those bases around the Caspian Sea and Eastern Europe, or the subtle threat that it also is on the list of the PNAC's nations subject to regime change?

And, is Pakistan ready now for US troops? Ready or not ...

Hey, guess what?

Here, I think I've found a solution to some of the world's problems. I say no one gets paid money anymore. Your money is now worthless. Every note in every nation no longer has any value. All banks go into default, and all deposits are void. So now, how will you get along? Or, will you or not? Such a simple solution. I should have thought of it before. :)

If the International Monetary Fund is worried, Bush's motto seems to be "What, me worry?" :) LOL

Opinion: My Pessimism and a Fragment of Hope

My interpretation of prophecy at this time is that the USA will be mainly embroiled in fighting Muslims in Central Asia and the Mideast until the Chinese get fed up with it and set out to kill 'em all who are in that area. But this interpretation is still open to revision. That is, I don't know for sure. :)

Sometimes I wish that I could change things. I'd love to change the world. But that's the way it goes, "first your money, then your clothes, then they break your f...ing nose." And that's not all folks...

I would think that there'd be a big fight over world-(and near earth orbit)-domination and oil. And, missile shields won't do much good at all. I could be wrong; most people would do a lot of backing down in order to avoid being nuked, almost anything maybe.

Much of it could be a surprise. But, is the present course of the human race sustainable? One surprise factor could be extraterrestrials. Anyway, we'll see ... possibly. But, I just don't see the situation improving. You got any other solutions? I don't see "preventative war" as a working model myself. Can we turn this ship around?
