    When two competing conservative principles are in conflict, the one that is against justice is suppressed in favor of the most just. Hence, a conservative principle of self-actualization may compete with another conservative principle as fairness in the given individual. Hence, when business's are corrupt... unions help to reign in fairness, but when unions are run amuk or run the bat for incompetant employees rather than allowing the company to replace them... it hurts those individuals who are competant and pull their weight of the workload. In such situations the unions are unnecessary and wasteful. As is, it is harder to disband a union once they are intrenched. The face of unions needs a facelift where we can reign them in also. The double standard of liberals is that companies are evil greedy enterprises, but when ***s are about to be lost and unions are threatened by the hand that feeds them is about to go bankrupt... that is a different thing. I guess conservativism attempts to balance the claims of Permanence and the claims of Progress. I sort of like the ten conservative principles: http://www.kirkcenter.org/kirk/ten-principles.html

    I mention this because it seems there is a new literary criticism forming in our era... Marxism is obvious, Feminism is obvious, but now comes the Environmental critic. All things now are subject to the new liberalism. All Hail Al Gore, the mighty revealer of an inconvenient truth! All Hail Michael Moore, the mighty slob and Bush hatemonger! This is the face of your new religion. The spokespeople of the elite Hollywood and Washington DCers! Down with gun ownership, up with big government, abortion on demand, comp***ionate euthenasia, and the modern day men in tight tights Robyn Hood!

    1) I do not play into this game of blaming . I can post a lot about the foolishness of the conservatives but that would be unproductive and against all my Zen principles.

    2) However, and concerning the Michael Moore documentary SICKO. What he had said about Canada, is totally true. This year I received around $12, 000 in medical services and that costed me nothing. Our country is one of the seven richest in the world. Your capitalist ideology of the right wing, can not meet the reality. We are social democrat, and we prosper. Same thing with the European countries. I have everything that what you have, and unfortunately, much more.

    Obama names 4 top members of science team
    By HOPE YEN, ***ociated Press Writer

    WASHINGTON – President-elect Barack Obama's selection Sa****ay of a Harvard physicist and a marine biologist for science posts is a sign he plans a more aggressive response to global warming than did the Bush administration.

    John Holdren and Jane Lubchenco are leading experts on climate change who have advocated forceful government action. Holdren will become Obama's science adviser as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Lubchenco will lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which oversees ocean and atmospheric studies and does much of the government's research on global warming.

    Holdren also will direct the president's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology. Joining him as co-chairs will be Nobel Prize-winning scientist Harold Varmus, a former director of the National Ins***utes of Health, and M***achusetts Ins***ute of Technology professor Eric Lander, a specialist in human genome research.

    "It's time we once again put science at the top of our agenda and worked to restore America's place as the world leader in science and technology," Obama said in announcing the selections in his weekly radio address.
