[[That's the ticket! But this is a preemptive read. Support for raising taxes on the rich even runs over the barrier Republicans have constructed with their new minority of obstruction, except for their "arithmetic" and Twain. Actually the link at TED did not cover the error that is made when comparing percentiles with shares, or per capita with any tiles and individuals with dollars. Where4, there is more money in the top 1% therefore the top 1% are going to be paying a greater share of the taxes. Not to be competing with TED, but that means a progressive tax will look more unfair the more unfair income distribution is, unless you have a regressive tax.]]

Inconvenient Segue

Not to pun on penta coastal, but I have reverted the reverted draft.
Not to pun on the Golden Rule, but Norman Goldman hits a gusher, with the BP line.
It would seem that the Gulf Leak may have been a heckuva job.
Which has proved unnatural selection!

Martin Luther King Jr. Day

For the first time his memorial will be open on his day.
Today I am refraining from ledership or word play.
But nature or nurture, it is also a snow day.
Not to rhyme or reason*, but not a bad segue.

[Word play & links* are more Google than nature or nurture.]

I have been lax in following the Republican debates, not that they were worth anything till recently. It may now be different with the caucus and primaries begun. Ron Paul may have fanciful economics but the golden rule is key to our differences.]

What, Me Worry?

No, I am not talking MAD[!].
I am talking math.
And so is Ronald Reagan!

Like the "golden rule" the "Buffet Rule" (not to mention American Exceptionalism) has two connotations.

[Speaking of Mad, here is a slippery slope. A combination of the fallacy of the false dilemma and the boogie man, not to mention divide to conquer. In the last dichotomy, it is the egalitarian from the rest of our founding principles and perspectives*.]

[Log-in prevented me from posting this comment (at INET...) which I save here.]
Michael your comment on "free market" and "freedom" begs definition. Words are often taken out of context or provide context, but my comment might be better framed as "problematic" or hitting the nail on the head. A "free market" will always be defined by some powers, and that does not imply that "freedom" exists. "Freedom" will always existed in the context of(relation to) other forces, market or no. This is not to provoke or confound, but may just be paraphrasing your intent, as I seem to find in your conclusion. The need for providing... an equation for the real world, or rather for economics which is yet to reflect the real world and thereby address the "myopia of share ownership". Hint to self: regards dymamics of "free market" regulating power. Back to the drawing board?[Now I just may review the interview and two comments before "provoking". Earlier, I caught the lede of a "related video" by a grad student about getting economists out into the real world, but I have been unable to find it @inet...]

Justice?

It is more about narrative than justice.

Many will agree killing bin Laden is justice, some will call it an execution. Some say President Obama did not give President Bush enough credit. Some will say that he bin Laden deserves more. I think the poor ridge is just right. And to summit up:

As we do, we must also reaffirm that the United States is not -- and never will be -- at war with Islam. I’ve made clear, just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11, that our war is not against Islam. Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda has slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries, including our own. So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity.

This is more than a mixed metaphor or mountain out of a moldy nursery tale*.

[QED: Movement in one data point does not correlate with movement in another data point, especially when they are not in context or adjusted. Math is not a narrative, it is a process. Equations are more of a narrative but require enough data points and sufficient interpretation. There can be more jobless claims and more jobs added, which are independent of each other. OK, I have not QED'd anything but a hunch I just described and which apparently the data shows.]

Just to clarify...

Have they filled Helen's seat yet?

Just to clarify: I do not believe all Jews should go back home*, and I hope (and feel confident) Helen Thomas did not either.(**) She seems to recognize that there are two states, Israel and Palestine from her answer to the original question. Which is more than one might be able to conclude of the questioner[***], given the way it was (mis?)understood, and misrepresented. If Helen Thomas (age aside) can be given such a hard time for her opinion and poor decision to engage in a sidewalk interview, my point is that there would be a whole lot more job openings in journalism, especially in the media.

* which home and what is a Jew?(not that I am answering that, but that does go to the modus operandi of a lot of the questioners{so called journalists] with their "what if"s or "it is as if"s. By the Golden Rule, they would not have been in the position to have created this "gotcha moment", be they Wire Staff, Newsroom or Press Secretaries.)

(**) and belief and saying it are two different things which some confound.

The Golden Rule (in Progress)

When it comes to war, diplomacy
and legal matters, the truth hurts.
But it cuts both ways.
CIA Refuses to Turn Over Torture Tape Documents
by Jason Leopold / www.truthout.org / Report

"The truth hurts" is one of those aphorisms. Logic requires truth, and it is a method of discerning truth. (A deeper or higher aphorism?) However, it is probably only the lack of truth or hiding it that truly hurts. Yet discerning it is a reversal of fortunes* or the irony of nature or law itself that facing it hurts.

"The first casualty of war is truth.".Or rather see how buried the truth can be.

* a reference to legal matters, diplomacy and war and what one loses first.

[The premise of my logic is not diminished by my misattribution of cross principles, In reversal, Obama seeks to block abuse photos The Guardian/AP...**
OUCH!: In trying to be cross cultural about the references to truth and freedom, I apologize for the pun to the links, but hope that it raises the value of the intersections.] and

The Tetrahedron Ramble*

What the heck** is the point? I revisit my Power Broker Mountain Project, or actually move on. What I call the prime disciplines as in fields of study, Physics, Psychology, and Philosophy form the base with Progress or their result as the point of their projection or application forming a reality or culture, as we know it, or think we know it, or feel we apply it, regardless.

The perspective that caused me to reconsider this model, or concept (as it also may be the perspective) is a proposition that Science, Religion, Politics, and Economics,(structures) have at least three things in common: Values, Ideology, and Power.(VIP) Now I don't want to be restricted to the math or geometry or insistence that there is meaning in them for some sake other than they are structures. But conceptually they are at the point of the tetrahedron and not the point of the tetrahedron any more than culture. Now to some this may have gotten nowhere, but we will get somewhere, with or without consideration of VIP and the Very Important Point of who and what we are or will become.

Is it no coincidence that there are three branches of the government, Legislative, Executive and Judiciary based on the constitution and the preamble, or that the first 10 amendments are called the Bill of Rights? Freedom and Justice are not forces to reckon*** with, but create.

The Mess Age is the Message!

[A POWER BROKER MOUNTAIN PROJECT]

Do you want to get on the same page?
Not in the Republican
way.
Do you want to grow the pie?
Not in the way the pieces for Bush and his buddies
have.
Between "the choir" and the maddening crowd...
see www.TheLiaisonReport.com [this site]

Between rhetoric and reality,
the media and the mess age,
and the politics and the pols...
Bush has said,
"War is hard work".
After November 7th,
we have just begun to work hard.

To go to the likes of progressive talk,
click HERE!
And when asked if the troops get it?
Check this out, and ask if they are serious too.

"whatsoever a man soweth"

New "Law"

Bush v. Olbermann

"The beginning of the end of America."

"Self-afflicted wound."

My take: Bush has just signed a law that Saddam could live with.

As summarized it is not the golden rule but the worst parental metaphore that he hopes will reign.

"Do unto others... as"

"Do as I say, not as I do"

Unfortunately we may not be able to change the cause and effect relations of physics simply by what we say, but by what we do, others will follow.

The 1st thing that went wrong.

LOYALTY

Ties to GOP trumped skill on Iraq team
In rebuilding effort, loyalty to Bush administration was paramount

This is probably the most important piece of the failed course that will not change. It not only rules out opposing views but limits the number of available skilled staff for an administration with little faith in the government serving the people. Then it also penalizes even those in the same party with open minds that see things differently. It should be no wonder that failure is so frequent and change is so difficult. Even those with merit that chose to keep giving their input will have no effect without the administration being willing to change and risk further exposure of their failures.

As George Lakoff, points out in the book, Don't think of an Elephant Know your values, Frame the debate there are a pair of parental metaphors Strict Father vs. Nurturing Parent and I earlier joked it was about the "Golden Rule", or rather the rule vs. the joke,(Those with...etc.). However there is a much simpler and more familiar way of putting it that explains the philosophy which is behind this all. "Do as I say, not as I do." Sadly the reaction to the reality that is in the results is also familiar to the strict father metaphor. "I'll give you something to cry about."

A second point, (not necessarily in order in the article)and I have not read beyond a few words in a few paragraphs, is probably the goal of privatization of government. It sounds good, but in reality it is a double edged sword that is not even half good. The two sides are either, you are on your own, and corporations will take care of what matters. It should simply be remembered that "privatization" is really "corporatization". Not that corporations are a bad thing, only that too much freedom is as much a concern for corporations as to individuals, for none of us would fair well on our own, even the ones that are trickling down.

[I will try to add links to my earlier references.]

Running on What? Rhetorical Slipperiness.

One statement that may summarize or simplify the theme behind my writing is an old saying and an old joke:
Follow the "Golden Rule".

"Do unto others as you would have others do unto you."
and
"Those with the gold, rule."

Both may be true, it is the extent that we apply them that matter and in modern terms it could be said that those with the oil rule. It is also to the extent that we know they are a joke, that we know anything. Or rather it is the extent that there is any truth that we we know it is a joke.

The theme is further complicated by just the trickiness of the words, rule and follow. Connections have been a sub-theme, but anybody can make them. Following may require a leader but a leader should remember that others follow what you do more than what you say. This would seem to be important whether we know what we mean or not.

It is tempting to want people to "Do as I say, not as I do." just as it is satisfying to "Have your cake and eat it too." But do people have faith in the words or math that power makes fuzzy? Do people really understand how to follow this?

This is what I have been saying in a round about way. It may be coincident that I run into the work of Philip Gold or it may be that I have been following public radio, but he has a book called "Take Back the Right." Not just that he has the right name(again) but his words echo mine and he seems to use the word right, among many, in a way that has meaning.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0786713526/ref=sib_dp_pt/103-8108271-4043046#reader-page for a review of the book and see his article in Seattle Weekly at the link below.

We may not have the same destination but we need the tools to build the road and we cannot ignore as much in the planning.
