Just watched the episode of Parts Unknown where Anthony Bourdain and Obama shared a meal in Vietnam. To say I am heartbroken knowing what I know now is a gross understatement.

There are so many powerful men, with no evidence of possessing a conscience. These are the people making monumental decisions without consulting their own souls.

If only there had been a deal that “…imposed strict, long-term limits on Iran's nuclear activities and inspections in exchange for lifting international sanctions.” You know something that provided “…IAEA with unprecedented access to Iran's nuclear facilities, supply chain, and uranium mines.”

After days like this weekend I think about this picture. Rich/powerful don’t care abt you. Conform, produce & stay in line. Keep economy going, labor cost low & profits high. Keep donors pushing money to their political puppets. US Gov will not move on gun control. Not w/o significant change.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

“…because you’re a stupid person.” Bullies, thugs and authoritarian minded jackasses try to divert attention away from criticism and attack the messenger. Weak-minded substitute for civil discourse when you have no good answers.

AG had binders full of ad hominem

The Ten Commandments of Logic
1.
Thou shalt not attack the person's character, but the argument. (Ad hominem)

2. Thou shalt not misrepresent or exaggerate a person's argument in order to make it easier to attack. (Straw man fallacy)

3. Thou shalt not use small numbers to represent the all. (Hasty generalisation)

4. Thou shalt not argue thy position by assuming one of its premises is true. (Begging the question)

5. Thou shalt not claim that because something occured before, it must be the cause. (Post hoc/False cause)
6.
Thou shalt not reduce the argument down to two possibilities. (False dichotomy)

Thou shalt not argue that because of our ignorance, a claim must be true or false. (Ad ignorantum)

8. Thou shalt not lay the burden of proof onto him that is questioning the claim. (Burden of proof reversal)

9. Thou shalt not assume "this" follows "that" when there is no logical connection. (Non sequitur)

10. Thou shalt not argue that because a premise is popular, therefore it must be true. (Bandwagon fallacy)

Last week I was doing some yard work at a friend’s house when I lost my balance and fell into a large shrub. I caught myself on a branch, but it broke and I fell further into the shrub until I caught another branch, but that broke as well. I was slowly falling into the inter sanctum of a hedge row.
