This Is What I Think.

Tuesday, October 11, 2016

So now you know why Clinton beat Bush in '92. Because I could.




And I knew today how this was going to turn out before I even ran the numbers.

What the hell was that all about? The doctor had given him an injection. A "booster" he'd called it. But what for? Against what? Outside this shrine to technology was a mere farm, and outside that, wild animals, which his driver of the day had seemed to worship.

Druids, he thought. In his time as a field officer in England he'd taken the time to read books and learn about the culture of the English, played the tourist, even traveled to Stonehenge and other places, in the hope of understanding the people better. Ultimately, though, he found that history was history, and though highly interesting, no more logical there than in the Soviet Union-where history had mainly been lies concocted to fit the ideological pattern of Marxism-Leninism.

Druids had been pagans, their culture based on the gods supposed to live in trees and rocks, and to which human lives had been sacrificed. That had doubtless been a measure exercised by the druid priesthood to maintain their control over the peasants… and the nobility, too, in fact, as all religions tended to do. In return for offering some hope and certainty for the greatest mysteries of life - what happened after death, why the rain fell when it did, how the world had come to be-they extracted their price of earthly power, which was to tell everyone how to live. It had probably been a way for people of intellectual gifts but ignoble birth to achieve the power associated with the nobility. But it had always been about power - earthly power. And like the members of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the druid priesthood had probably believed that which they said and that which they enforced because-they had to believe it. It had been the source of their power, and you had to believe in that.

But these people here weren't primitives, were they?

Laurels, hardy-har-har Big brains are aquiver at MIT: Who will win the Ig Nobel Prize?

With grand pomp and circumstance, the Swedish meatball king and queen will hold aloft huge, ornate medallions and then, bucket-brigade style, pass them down the dais to the designated recipients.

The recipients may be delighted, or they may be outraged. Then again, they may be absent.

Theatrical, yes. A typical academic awards ceremony, no.

But it's sure to be fun.

Clinton Takes Centrist Stance To The 1992 Presidential Race

By John King

AP

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Gov. Bill Clinton today entered the 1992 presidential race with the accusation that President Bush is turning his back on America's middle class. Clinton promised to provide "leadership that will restore the American dream."

"The country is headed in the wrong direction fast, it's falling behind, losing its way, and all we have gotten out of Washington is status quo paralysis," Clinton told cheering supporters at a rally outside Arkansas' bunting-draped old Statehouse.

"Together we can make America great again and build a community of hope that will inspire the world."

Clinton is the second governor and fifth major Democratic candidate to join the 1992 Democratic field. All are newcomers to national politics, positioning themselves as outsiders ready to seize a government they portray as shortsighted and gridlocked.

It is a message Clinton has carried for more than a decade, and particularly in the last year as leader of the Democratic Leadership Council. The centrist group was formed by Southern and other Democrats who view the national party as too liberal and too tied to minorities and special interests.

"The change we must make isn't liberal or conservative," Clinton said. "It's both and it's different. The small towns and main streets of our country aren't like the corridors and back rooms of Washington. People out here don't care about the idle rhetoric of the `left' and `right' and `liberal' and `conservative' and all the other words that have made our politics a substitute for action.

"These families are crying out desperately for someone who believes the promise of America is to help them with their struggle to get ahead
