I don’t see how Assad hangs on. [Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip] Erdogan has said he can’t stay, the Arab League has said he can’t stay. . . The forces of reality and technology, mobilization and human rights are just too strong.

yeah idk man

We Americans have this frame of reference … we see a problem, there has to be a solution... Well, the kind of complicated world we live in, I’m not sure there’s a solution to everything right now. What you have to do is manage it so it doesn’t get worse, manage it toward a higher ground of solution possibilities.

this is a remarkably sensible thing to say

― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 15 March 2012 17:27 (fourteen years ago)

a higher ground of solution possibilities

is this even English – holy christ

They're politicians, but guys like Hagel and Kerrey make a good case for unicameral governments.

they have a thread for everything these days.

"higher ground of solution possibilities" is an awkward phrase to be sure but that's sage advice.

"Like any other state, there has to be compliance with this and any other federal law," Santorum said. "And that is that English has to be the principal language. There are other states with more than one language such as Hawaii but to be a state of the United States, English has to be the principal language."

However, the U.S. Constitution does not designate an official language, nor is there a requirement that a territory adopt English as its primary language in order to become a state.

wtf

― flesh, the devil, and a wolf (wolf) (amateurist), Friday, 16 March 2012 03:24 (fourteen years ago)

who thinks that requiring a state to have an official language of english is in the constitution?

― flesh, the devil, and a wolf (wolf) (amateurist), Friday, 16 March 2012 03:24 (fourteen years ago)

He seems to have forgotten that "English as a National Language" had been dangled about as a wedge issue by the Republicans for ages even though they never actually passed anything. Or he never knew in the first place.

a boat?

one of the biggest panels at CPAC this year btw was "why multiculturalism is evil" and two of the three sponsors were english-only rightist groups. the other sponsor was y0uth 4 western civilization, the closest thing to an outright american fascist group on college campuses today

if rick santorum were like louis xiv and made a misstatement like that they'd just have to pass a law right away so that he wasn't wrong.

― flesh, the devil, and a wolf (wolf) (amateurist), Friday, 16 March 2012 04:51 (fourteen years ago)

if rick santorum were like louis xiv he would probably come off as a credible national leader

Not sure why people say he's disconnected from everyday life. No teleprompter, just a man and his cupcake.

This new preoccupation with documenting Mitt's every meal and snack is odd.

'its kind of a play on words'

I think it's probably just a new phase of the campaign intended to confuse Santorum and Gingrich.
