    Still, it does depress me that people like Edwards and Romney are taken seriously enough, that the electorate actually gets close to letting them run things. I mean, any examination, however ephemeral, of the things they say and/or publish, should strike terror into the hearts of anyone with a brain. And they are apparently being judged 'best in show' by whatever breeders run the kennel club that chooses who we get to vote for. It's freaking worse than Westminster...

    What does "freedom" even mean these days anyway? We're all monitored by the NSA, we're beaten up if we're gay (with the support of law enforcement, depending on where you live), we're arrested if we protest in mass numbers (as at the 2004 RNC). How do we have more freedom than Russia, where it sometimes seems like pretty much anything goes?

    So, the media finds a raw document from a non-Democrat, and publishes it. Hey, care to go through some of Obama's raw documents? Nah, I didn't think so.

    @hatchetman: Can you conservatives start your own, comparably popular, comparably satirical, and comparably funny politics and media blog, where you could go through Obama's raw documents yourselves, and find something hilarious enough to get us to come over and whine?


    Nah, I didn't think so.

    Maybe his jpg is rendering weirdly, but does the USA being striped mean it both "aspires to world leadership" and is "rogue and malevolent"?


    And more seriously, why isn't the Jihadists both red and blue, too?

    What a mess. Where to begin? As dotorg greg already noted, the quadrants (or, in this case, multiple sectors) are screwed up. (Economic freedom, on the x axis, should increase from left to right, not backwards toward the origin.) What do the blue arrows mean? That the current rogues aim to surpass the US in both free enterprise and liberty? Blue for aspirationals, red for malevolent rogues, and a striped circle for the US for what? For a small fee, I'm available to prevent death from PowerPoint.

    This is better than Sarah Palin's foreign policy solution which consists of menacingly waving a stick with a chunk of old dog poop on the end it.
