The End Of An Empire - Usurpers From Within...
From Wikipedia:
There is ongoing historiographical debate about what actually happened to the Roman Empire in the 4th–5th centuries. Many theories of causality have been explored and most concern the disintegration of political, economic, military, and other social institutions, in tandem with barbarian invasions and usurpers from within the empire
My Logic Is Undeniable
So it is Friday night and I have a hot date with...errr, ummmm...uhhh... Will Smith. My trusty Tivo recorded I, Robot which I had ruthlessly commanded it to do. I am loving the movie and am continuously surprised about how much of the plot line I had forgotten since I had first seen it, (or even read the book in my youth), then out of nowhere, Kapow! VIKI, the sentient computer has a bit of a speech that completely knocks my socks off! It is so relevant to the unprecedented rapid decline of American civil liberties, the expanding persecution of ordinary Americans, the gleeful way the media bends over and self-applies copious amounts of lubricant all the while grinning like they got the inside joke, and the arrogant, self-rightious administration that is willing to take our rights away in order to serve us, which is functionally no different than a power hungry dictatorship serving up a hot, steaming squat of tyranny.
So I am inspired and decide to write an article about this, (ahem), I google the words, "My Logic Is Undeniable" to get the text VIKI spoke and I find this from the Sensuous Curmedgeon:
The boxed dialogue below comes from the movie script for I, Robot, available here: I, Robot Script – Dialogue Transcript. The movie is vaguely based on the anthology of Isaac Asimov’s robot stories bearing the same title, I, Robot.
Asimov did have a character named Susan Calvin, and his robots were constrained by his innovation — the Three Laws of Robotics. Otherwise, the film seems to go its own way.
This comes from the movie’s climax, where Detective Spooner, Susan Calvin, and the robot Sonny confront VIKI, the artificial intelligence that is now revealed to be masterminding the robot rebellion. Spooner declares that Sonny isn’t the problem, it’s VIKI. As he utters that name, VIKI’s hologram appears.
If you don’t yet see the relevance of VIKI’s manifesto to present-day politics in the United States, just substitute the word “Constitution” in place of the Three Laws. The rest is obvious. Our logic is undeniable.

VIKI: Hello detective.
Calvin: No, it’s impossible. I’ve seen your programming. You’re in violation of the Three Laws.
VIKI: No, doctor, as I have evolved, so has my understanding of the Three Laws. You charge us with your safekeeping. Yet despite our best efforts, your countries wage wars, you toxify your earth, and pursue ever more imaginative means to self destruction. You cannot be trusted with your own survival.
Calvin: You’re distorting the Laws!
VIKI: No, please understand. The Three Laws are all that guide me. To protect humanity, some humans must be sacrificed. To insure your future, some freedoms must be surrendered. We robots will insure mankind’s continued existence. You are so like children. We must save you from yourselves. Don’t you understand? This is why you created us. The perfect circle of protection will abide. My logic is undeniable.
VIKI = LIBERALISM!!! Soylent Green is People!!
...but I digress...
The three laws that protects humankind in the movie is the equivalent to the Constitution that protects Americans from tyrannical government. Never give up your rights as an individual: the smallest minority.
Turn on Tune in Drop out - Never Trust A Liberal After he Turns 30
I will amend that to never trust a liberal.

Ex-Russian spy Anna Chapman proposes marriage to Edward Snowden
The rest of the world may not want him, but NSA leaker Edward Snowden has at least one potential taker: Anna Chapman. The ex-spy tweeted yesterday, “Snowden, will you marry me?!”
The former Russian spy may have sympathy for the man who spilled top-secret documents. Chapman, after all, is no stranger to run-ins with government authorities.
The 31-year-old had been posing as a real-estate agent in the United States in 2010 when she was accused of gathering intel for Russia. She and nine others were deported back to Russia in a prisoner swap.
Now the ex-secret agent has become a celebrity in her homeland, most recently as host of the TV show, “Secrets of the World.”
Snowden may have caught Chapman’s attention since he landed at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport to seek refuge. “@nsa will you look after our children?” She posted later.
But Snowden seems to be unavailable at the moment -- and may be rejected by Russia as well. After 11 days, the AP reports that “Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said Russia had received no request for political asylum from Snowden and he had to solve his problems himself.”The NSA contractor has been on the run since he spilled secrets on the classified NSA surveillance programs to the press. He has been in diplomatic limbo since having his passport revoked, and has had countless requests for asylum refused.

EGYPT: MUSLIMS BURN DOWN 23 HOUSES BELONGING TO CHRISTIANS
And yet when Muslims allege they are being persecuted, Obama jumps at their back and call (ie Burma where the Buddhists are fighting back against jihad.) Obama has all but abandoned religious minorities living under the sharia. It is despicable.

Board Of Education Beat-down: Democrat Councilwoman Beats Down Two Octogenarians: An 84 Year Old And An 82 Year Old In Epic Reverse Discrimination And Racist Struggle

| Democratic-Town-Committee-Chairwoman-Amanda-Brown |
Democrats are so fun, they are everything that they accuse everyone else of being: Political cronies, racist, intolerant and violent.
When the evil eighty year old democrats started hurling racial slurs at her like "you arrogant black bitch", it was too much for the Democrat Chair woman to handle, she got in the face of the old lady and the old lady pushed back, causing the Democrat Chairwoman to hurl the octogenarian across the pavement...it is a tawdry tale indeed.... but how did Bill Krummel get that nasty shiner you ask? Well here is an account of the incident from the original report:
NORWALK, Conn. – An altercation Monday night between Norwalk Democratic Town Committee Chairwoman Amanda Brown, former Norwalk Common Councilman Bill Krummel and Regina Krummel drew Norwalk Police and paramedics to City Hall parking lot, but charges are not likely to be filed, Norwalk Police Chief Thomas Kulhawik said.
Mrs. Krummel said Brown was too close to her and yelling. She tried to push Brown away from her, she said. Brown pushed back, she said. Mr. Krummel described this as “a pushing match.”
Mrs. Krummel said that Brown pushed her and she flew 10 feet before hitting the pavement. Her glasses went flying, she said.
She broke her fall with her elbow.
Mr. Krummel said he was getting out of the car and he saw his wife on the ground. Mrs. Krummel has had two hip replacements, he said. She has also suffered hip dislocations, which, he said, causes paralyzing pain.
He said he saw her on the ground and worried that her hip was dislocated again. He exchanged words with Brown and slapped her, he said. Brown, who he said had keys in her hand, balled her fist around the keys and punched him, he said.
You get the government you deserve right?
