I think it was a rather boring debate, but that Senator Obama did not have much choice. One has to keep in mind that the debates are almost exclusively meant for the Undecided and Swing voters, and not for the base or even those who are pretty sure about who they're voting for. Unfortunately 'race' does have a major role to play in this RACE for the 'White' House. Here you have a relatively young 'Black' man (on 'race' issues I am personally rather color-blind, as I am myself a mutt and proud of it...one factor I am happy Senator Obama shares with me)...anyway...so here you have a young African-American male having to debate a much older 'White' male, and one who could easily be many American's beloved Uncle Bob or Grandpa Henry. If Senator Obama in a direct debate were to appear as verbose and blunt as he is on the campaign trail then that could very easily backfire in what we Social Scientists (I'm a Philosopher with a strong background in Socio-Psychology) call the Subconscious Zone and in an election that is likely to be very close that kind of risk is too great to take! So Senator Obama wore kids gloves and even kept on reminding himself not to raise his voice as loud as he actually is able to, or to be too strong in rejecting Senator McCain's attempts to misrepresent Senator Obama's actual stances, past and current. One can clearly see that the next morning, out on the trail, Senator Obama was strong and sharp as ever and had no qualms of doing at a distance what would have been fatal in the proximity of a direct debate! Fatal for either or both sides! Imagine poor old McCain getting a heart-attack in a direct debate with Senator Obama, just because Obama landed a few well deserved verbal judo punches?! That would risk killing both of their chances of being President, and leave the door very open for that Ap-Paling quasi-woman Alaskan demi-Governor, whose appearances are so easily deceptive. And Senator Biden would also get the brunt of the blame for ever being a partner to Senator Obama! So, all in all, it was a very good thing that Senator Obama, especially in the very first debate, seriously refrained from letting the debate get exciting!
As for concerns over Senator Obama's debate tone on Israel; no worries there whatsoever! One must remember that there is absolutely nothing in Senator Obama's actual views and record, not even from his earliest days at Columbia or even before, that could indicate the slightest risk to U.S.-Israel relations! In fact, if you closely examine McCain's record you will find some very troubling things vis-a-vis Israel! Also, we have a double guarantee in Senator Biden as Senator Obama's V.P. running-mate. Senator Biden is one of the top ten Senators to have the highest possible favorable rating with various pro-Israel lobbies and groups! Ofcourse, Senator Obama is wise in not over-stating his support for Israel, especially given the fact that many Undecided and Swing voters are actually cold on Israel's Jewish reality, even as they tend to support Israel for their own pseudo-Christian neo-Evangelical pro-Rapture purposes! Remember that the vast majority of those so-called Christians who have given huge amounts of money to Right-wing Israeli political parties, and to violent extremist Settler Movements (MIND YOU: not all Settlers are extremists)...the vast majority of these pseudo-pro-Israel types are actually serious anti-Semites and seriously believe that all Jews who do not convert will end up in Hell and deserve the worst possible path to Hell!!! In other words, Senator Obama has to be pro-Israel but seem a bit neutral on the Jewishness of Israel! And also he has to avoid alienating the Arab-American community, many of whom have very strong mixed-up feelings about Israel and many of whom are hesitant voters! When you add the Arab-American factor and the anti-Semitic pseudo-Christian factor, then Senator Obama's debate stance was VERY WELL DEVISED and GOOD! Mind you, exactly because of the horrors of what happened months after Bush Jr. stole into office, there is an unfortunately strong under-current of mixed anti-Muslim anti-Jew anti-Arab anti-Israel sentiment prevalent in America today!! And this troubling under-current, that sometimes boils to the fore, cuts across traditional political party lines! I'd venture to say that both major parties have their significant and gradually growing share of anti-Semites! That is, anti-Israeli and anti-Arab anti-Semites! And the only real way that we are going to be able to reverse this dangerous trend is if Senator Obama wins and if we Democrats can begin to seriously undo, untangle the knots of excessive suspicion, distrust and fear that all these seven-plus Color-coded years have managed to tie us up in! Which is why I am totally convinced that a McCain victory...thank H'SH'M that this is apparently HIGHLY UNLIKELY...would spell final disaster for all humanity! Just imagine a world where America is truly the Fallen Empire that these pseudo-Republicans would have managed to create?!?! Even Europe would not be able to stand against the pressure from the emerging Economic Superpowers...what with China and Russia having such a deficit in Individual Rights, and Democratic and Humanist values! So, let's not worry about Senator Obama tip-toeing through the tulips on issues related to Israel. Let's only worry about both worrying too much and becoming complacent as we reach the final ten yards! Let's remember that given the horrendous economic and fiscal State of Our Union....no thanks to these professional pirates and unscrupulous thugs pretending to be Patriotic Republicans....this elections is ours to lose!

The Problem of The Matti Juhani Saari’s Of The World & How To Solve It!
By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Scientific & Spiritual Philosopher.
Before my article I would like to express my most sincere condolences to all those whose lives have been shattered by this sick young person’s senseless acts of extreme violence. Having witnessed extreme violence as a young man in a war-torn region of the world, I know all too well how it feels to see life turned completely upside down. I have long dedicated much of my efforts to find ways to prevent violence, including direct violence and socio-economic violence, which, as Mahatma Gandhi correctly showed, are linked. Obviously one form of violence never truly justifies another, except when it is truly in self-defense, and one must be careful not to confuse these kind of insanities with what Partisans and fighting Jews did in response to the monstrosity of Nazism and Fascism in World War 2.
And now, my article;
Sometimes I really have to wonder whether The World is paying any real attention to those of us whose relatively critical observations and understanding of the world’s social problems might yield serious, practical solutions. And when a very sick young person, such as Matti Juhani Saari of Finland, manages to destroy so many more lives than just the ones he actually murdered point-blank, my sense of indignation and frustration compel me to write yet another one of these types of articles, in the eternal hope that my views and advice shall finally be given the kind of public policy attention they deserve.
On my part, as an independent Free-Thinker, a Spiritual & Scientific Philosopher, this is the very least I can and should do, in the sincere conviction that I am correct about my understanding and my reasoning-out solutions. After all, if prevention of these tragic horrors is possible, as I am sure it is, then it is our sincere obligation as fellow citizens of this precious little planet of ours to leave no stone unturned in our quest for a world free from the excessive fear and irrational hate that generates so many victims and victimizers!
First of all, there is no doubt about the fact that this specific type of extreme violence was until relatively recently unheard of in modern Scandinavian societies, and that something must have changed over the years in Finland, where this is the third such incident since 1989. Then again, we must also keep in mind that Scandinavia was once the prominent cultural source of Viking and Celtic cultures, which were notorious for their excessive violence! So, as we take a deeper look into this matter, we must not over-idealize Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish culture. As any Scandinavian Social Scientist or Anthropologist is likely to confirm; there is and has always been an under-current of excessively violent emotions in their societies, and it is only with the advent of Reformed Christianity and The Humanist Movement of the early 20th Century that educated Scandinavian intellectuals have worked very hard to provide the kind of social circumstances intended to reduce the risks of these troubling undercurrents.
These last two tragedies, the one perpetrated by Pekka-Eric Auvinen in Jokela, which claimed the lives of 9 persons, and this one, which has claimed the lives of 10 persons (not including the life of Saari, himself), were done by sick young men whose contempt for humanity was something they openly declared on such public Internet sites as YouTube! But why?!? What is it about life in Finland today that could be a significant factor in the sick mindset, twisted world-view and demented set of pseudo-ideals that these young men held??
A lot of extreme youth violence today, I would contend, is the result of the kind of growing severe social instability caused by a combination of the severe socio-economic insecurity suffered by their parents, combined with HIV-AIDS fear-mongering which has managed to remove a major stress-releasing venue once popular in modern Scandinavian societies: relatively easy access to pleasurable sexual relationships, especially for the parents of this young men. For in colder climates, where half of the year is lived in relative darkness and people are at risk of severe depression, sexual pleasure, in the context of warm, affectionate, socialization was actually encouraged! And when a young man is senses that his parents are not frustrated and unhappy, he is much less likely to develop anti-social thoughts and behavior. If we stop glamorizing strict monogamy, which tends be nothing more than insecurity-based possesiveness, then young people will not feel obliged to strive for some unrealistic ideal! Now, I am not at all suggesting that monogamy is wrong per se, not that anyone who is able to live in true loving monogamy should abandon what makes them feel comfortable and happy, but I am suggesting that young men and women today are getting very confused, mixed messages and there are no intellectual role models they can look up to and respect and seek to emulate! Fact is that the mass media has abandoned promoting intellectuals, especially those whose message is of unity-in-diversity, tolerance of tolerant others, liberal enjoyment of life's natural pleasures and healthy mutual consentual relations between mature persons! In that sense the mass media are much to blame for discouraging young people from being intellectually inclined!
As for this particular tragic massacre; sexual repression must surely have been a factor. In fact, one could argue that the Viking and Celtic peoples would have been even more violent and violence-ridden were it not for their sexual socialization! And no doubt the forced introduction of the sexually-inhibitive pre-Reformed early ‘Christian’ way of living, which strictly opposed the Pagan, sexually active, way of life, caused a similar increase in extreme violence! Just that we do not have the statistics from those times, and so we assume that these incidents have nothing to do with sexuality. The fact of the matter is simple; in times of socio-economic hardship, combined with excessive fears of dangerous diseases, such as HIV-AIDS, Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis and deadly Hepatitis-C, women tend to be less willing to open up sexually to men, and this kind of regressive social instability pushes people, especially men, to extremes, such that they begin to experience mental disorders, become reactionary and eventually lose their mental sanity and commit acts of excessive violence! But then, what is the real solution to preventing this chain-reaction of dangerous problems? Obviously, it would be wrong to suggest that women in society should endanger their lives by engaging in the kind of sexual activities that were not as risky in previous times. And obviously it would be counter-productive to continue the status quo of sexual repression. So? The answer is actually quite evident: we can find sophisticated, well-devised, and definitely much safer ways to provide the same old-time levels of sexual and social freedom and cohesion. For example, if governments really wanted happier, healthier and thus more humane societies all they would need to do is work with the private sector in creating facilities and venues where relatively Safe-Sex encounters would be possible! New speedy AIDS testing technologies and encouraging the use of quality condoms would go a long way to insuring that such venues would be almost entirely risk-free! But this would also mean re-introducing the culture of poly-amorous tolerance that began to exist in the late 60s to the early 80s, but without all the dangerous, senseless, careless risk-taking! After all, the fact of the matter is quite simple: because of the enormous public health threat that HIV-AIDS and other socially and sexually communicable diseases pose, including the obvious socio-economic threat, governments since the 80s have been literally ‘killing the patient in order to cure the disease’! They have been doing everything possible to discourage young people and elder persons from exactly the kind of behavior, which, if done sensibly, would actually help reduce violence in society!
As usual, a bunch of socially incompetent technocrats took the world from one extreme to another, all in the name of protecting economic interests by curtailing sexual freedom by means of mass media assisted fear-mongering! Any truly wise social architect and manager can see that they failed to consider the possibility of a middle-of-the-road approach, a truly creative and new technologies- and methodologies-based way to at once continue providing people the venues and cultural-acceptability of sexual freedom, while significantly helping to prevent and reduce the truly dangerous and destructive spread of diseases! Ah! But who stood to benefit…to profit…from such stupid, counterproductive and backfiring technocratic approaches and policies towards transmissible diseases?? Well, the answer is quite simple and obvious: both Reactionary Anti-Social Right-wing Elitists and Traditional Conservative Religionists! For these types of extremists HIV-AIDS was a ‘heaven send’ and one could even argue that there might be some measure of truth to those conspiracy theories that claim HIV-AIDS was deliberately created and/or allowed to take on epidemic proportions and become a serious public health concern! Mind you, the Reagan Administration deliberately ignored calls, even from within the Gay Homosexual community, to impose humane forms of Quarantine on individuals with AIDS, when HIV and Un-Safe Sexual Practices were not yet identified as the culprits! And all pseudo-Republican Administrations have worked with other entities to prevent the popularization of Safe-Sex methodology and practice! Why? Because sexually liberated and free societies are not excessive, junk-food, junk-product-addicted consumerist societies that ultimately only serve the interests of Reactionary Elitist Extreme Capitalists! Moderate Progressive Liberal Capitalists, including Social Democrats like myself, have been the ultimate targets of these Extreme Regressive Reactionary pseudo-Conservative Capitalists. Sure, those of us on the right side of History, those of us who truly value and respect Individual Human Rights, Freedoms and Liberties, including (obviously) natural Family Rights, will not lie about the reality of things by telling you that a Scientific, Pro-Social Responsibly Progressive Liberal way of Sexually Free Society is totally without dangers and risks! I would quesstimate that the difference between the Reactionary way and ours is that theirs ultimately causes hundreds of millions of deaths, at least, while ours only causes tens of millions at most! But the Reactionary way also leads to a significant rise in Global Security Threats and a very dangerous increase in violent conflicts! Whereas our Responsibly Progressive Liberal way actually diminishes the overall Global Security Threat and leads to a significant reduction in wars, crime and corruption! In a world of physical imperfection there is no perfect solution to anything, let alone to the ages old problem of “To Do It, or Not To Do It!”. I say, let the Happy Days and Sexual Freedom back again, but this time let’s do things sensibly, safely and soundly!
Otherwise, I fear, these sort of horrifying mass murders will become more and more common and within no time we’ll be stuck in a bottomless pit of violence and horror spiraling out of control, wondering why we didn’t heed the wise advice of Responsibly Progressive Liberal Social Democrats, such as myself!
As for better gun control programs; within reason I support that, but we must remember that where there is a strong will there is also a way! And reducing access to guns alone will not insure our safety, security and sanity!

French President Sarkozy Is Turning Out To Be Quite A Darling!
by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.
As many of you know about me, I’m a Progressive Liberal Social Democrat, and no friend of right-wing politicians, but French President Sarkozy, true to his weird Inauguration Speech last year, keeps doing things that impress me!
Last time, it was Monsieur Le President de la Republique Sarkozy’s announcing the creation of a Mediterranean Union, especially suitable for helping resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
And now this! :
French President Nicolas Sarkozy says that ‘those responsible for the crisis that has swept global financial markets should be punished’!
He said these words as part of an acceptance speech at an award ceremony attended by U.S. and French business leaders, calling for the "truth" on the crisis to be uncovered.
"Today, millions of people across the world fear for their savings, for their apartment, for the funds they have put in banks. It is our duty to give them clear answers," he declared, and then asked, "Who is responsible for this disaster?”, followed by a strong call for action: “May those who are responsible be punished and held accountable!" All of this only hours in advance of a speech to the U.N. General Assembly.
This worst financial crisis since The Great Depression has prompted the U.S. government to request a $700 billion bailout package for Wall Street firms in order to rid them of the toxic mortgage-related debt which toppled investment bank Lehman Brothers and which threatens to plunge the world into disaster!
The bailout package has yet to be approved by Congress and has been criticized by some observers, who point out that it would be quite a travesty if the bankers who ignited this mega-crisis were not held fully responsible for the consequences of their astronomic folly.
Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson contends that his plan will result in far less damage to taxpayers than would happen if companies were left to deal with the financial damages of the crisis.
The French President’s daring comments were not received with great enthusiasm from those members of the business community in attendance, who could easily afford to pay between $1,500 to $75,000 each, just to see Monsieur Sarkozy awarded The Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity’s top annual award at a VIP gala event held in New York City.

DOW JONES MAY DROP OVER 800 TO 2,000 POINTS!
The insolvency of Lehman Brothers provides the most daunting evidence of just how bad market fundamentals really are, and have been, for quite some time! We are now going to wittness the possible beginning of a Mini-Depression that will spread from Wall Street to much of the rest of The World! This major crisis will test the ability of governments, throughout the world, to deal with massive unemployment, abject poverty, homelessness, civil strife and worse. This dramatic drop in the value of Stocks, Bonds, Funds and Futures, will end up costing the lives of millions, possibly hundreds of millions. And all because of excessive speculation on residential housing, that has put affordable standard housing well beyond the means of most working-class poor, as well as a significant number of middle class people.
Today, September 15, 2008, will be remembered for years to come as the beginning of either a relatively short-term Mini-Depression or the last straw that broke the camels back! Tomorrow and for the next eight to ten days markets will plummet and the only thing that can prevent total disaster is a massive effort on the part of China and Russia to exploit the situation and flood America and Western Europe with loads of easy money!!! Or the U.S. and other governments using their tax-payers money to keep things floating! But that kind of intervention is very dangerous for the long-term and the only thing that can prevent Total Global Economic Collapse would be a total change in American foreign and domestic policy that would signal an end to the Disastrous Bush Doctrine, as it has come to be known. To put it bluntly; only an Obama-Biden Ticket Victory in the U.S. Presidential Elections can help restore America's global image and relations, especially in terms of its ability to sell its products, services and investment propects abroad.
I foresee an Obama-Biden Victory, and have predicted this for more than almost a year now. And it will come just in the nick of time, before everything spirals out of control into the worst possible disaster you can imagine!
If,however, McCain-Palin were able to steal the elections, that would certainly spell disaster. But Palin is likely to make too many mistakes and pull McCain down with her. And neither McCain nor Palin will do well during the debates. Senators Obama and Biden will win the debates, hands down!
You heard it here first!
Remember this: YOUR ORIGINAL NEW YORK CITY FREE ADVICE MAN is no run of the mill wannabe nobody!
Expect, after Senator Obama enters The Oval Office of The White House to take his place behind The President's desk, the world economic situation to begin to stabilize and eventually get better within the next 24 months.
Today, September 15, 2008, will be remembered for years to come as the beginning of either a relatively short-term Mini-Depression or the last straw that broke the camels back! Tomorrow and for the next eight to ten days markets will plummet and the only thing that can prevent total disaster is a massive effort on the part of China and Russia to exploit the situation and flood America and Western Europe with loads of easy money!!! Or the U.S. and other governments using their tax-payers money to keep things floating! But that kind of intervention is very dangerous for the long-term and the only thing that can prevent Total Global Economic Collapse would be a total change in American foreign and domestic policy that would signal an end to the Disastrous Bush Doctrine, as it has come to be known. To put it bluntly; only an Obama-Biden Ticket Victory in the U.S. Presidential Elections can help restore America's global image and relations, especially in terms of its ability to sell its products, services and investment propects abroad.
I foresee an Obama-Biden Victory, and have predicted this for more than almost a year now. And it will come just in the nick of time, before everything spirals out of control into the worst possible disaster you can imagine!
If,however, McCain-Palin were able to steal the elections, that would certainly spell disaster. But Palin is likely to make too many mistakes and pull McCain down with her. And neither McCain nor Palin will do well during the debates. Senators Obama and Biden will win the debates, hands down!
You heard it here first!
Remember this: YOUR ORIGINAL NEW YORK CITY FREE ADVICE MAN is no run of the mill wannabe nobody!

We Must Do All We Can To Stop These Murderers, Assasins, Terrorists!
I was not intending to write anything here today, at least nothing of this sort, but there I was busy working on my Photoblog.com Art & Other Photographs BLOG-site, enjoying the company of mostly decent people, many who share my love of life, of humanity and of peace, prosperity, tolerance of tolerant others, Unity-in-Diversity, Democracy, Freedom, Liberty, Fair Justice and what not, when I had to look up something via Yahoo! and saw the main
Breaking, Shocking Headline News from India's Capital New Delhi!!!
Sick,murderous, disgusting, cowardly fake-Muslim fanatic extremist thugs, terrorists, ....UGH!....the words I could use!....set off a number of sudden and relatively unnexpected devices of totally indiscriminate mass murder called bombs!
I, The Original New York City Free Advice Man, Philosopher of Life, of The World & The Universe, lover of all that is truly lovable, decent and affectionately human, condemn, as I always have in such times, in the most forceful way, these atrocious acts of sheer inhumanity, that do nothing to further any cause at all, but simply make the whole world more miserable, more dangerous and more desperate!
Cannot these kind of....I'd say people but then how can real human beings do such thngs?.... totally insensitive individuals and groups of totally insensitive individuals see that there is absolutely no evidence throughout all History that such cowardly and mosntrous and despicable acts have never accomplished anything meaningful, and have always backfired and caused not only immeasureable suffering for those poor victims and their families and loved, but have also caused acts of retaliation that, though often necessary, make things much, much worse for those who do these things!
Do these sick monsters realize that Islam, and Judaism and Christianity, TOTALLY FORBID SUCH VIOLENT ACTS???
There is absolutely no justification or excuse WHATSOEVER!
Only through truly Loving All G-D's Creation, All Human Beings, All Sentient Beings, Even The Non-Mammals I Say We Can Kill For Food (for food ONLY!), can we begin to find real solutions, truly peaceful ones, to our grievances and perceived injustices, real or not!
Irrational hate and fear are NEVER the way of those who are TRULY WISE!
And why would anyone in their right mind want to be UNWISE?!?
No matter what others may say, I will always make a fair, sincere effort to tell those who are today my enemies (by their own ignorant, bad semi-choices and Evil thoughts)that THAT NON-DEFENSIVE VIOLENCE IS NEVER, HAS NEVER BEEN AND WILL NEVER BE THE WAY TO SOLVE ANYTHING!
We, the Lovers of Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein and Baruch Spinoza, will not allow a sick minority group of mentally ill and ignorant but very dangerous fools to have the upper hand! WE WILL FIND YOU, WE WILL BRING YOU TO JUSTICE, WE WILL DESTROY ANY OF YOU WHO AVOID BEING BROUGHT TO JUSTICE...WE WILL NEVER, EVER NEGOTIATE WITH YOU UNTIL YOU TOTALLY AND HONESTLY RENOUNCE ALL FORMS OF UNJUSTIFIED, CRIMINAL, SACRILIGIUS, UNETHICAL, IMMORAL, INHUMANE VIOLENCE!!!
Little by little, unfortunately not fast enough, the whole world is going to unite, Peace-Loving Christians, Jews, Muslims, not phoneys and fakes who keep on trying to turn the rest of us against one another....and SOON WE WILL COME AFTER THOSE OF YOU WHO DISRESPECT THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS, WHO VIOLATE G-D'S GOLDEN RULE, THE LAW OF LOVE, WHO COMMIT THESE SENSELESS MURDERS...and WE WILL NOT REST AT EASE UNTIL WE WIPE THIS SCOURGE OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH!
To the Victims & Their Loved Ones: as ever I send my most sincere condolences and share your grief and near-utter sense of loss, and, having been a victim of such sick people myself, I continously dedicate myself to defeating these sick monsters by all justifiable and honorable means possible!
May We Not Let These Few Cause Us To Turn On One Another!
United WE Stand, Divided WE Fall!

Why We Shall Win & Why They May Steal Our Victory!
Why We Shall Win & Why They May Steal Our Victory!
By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, The Original New York City Free Advice Man.
On Tuesday, November the 4th, 2008, We Americans will turn out in huge numbers, possibly the largest numbers ever recorded, to cast our votes for the man who will become the next President of The United States of America! Millions of people, most of whom have actually suffered from the failed policies of the Bush Administration, will finally make the most crucial decision they can make, and decide whether they really want change for the better or change for the worse, whether they really want to have a government for all the people or just for an elite few, whether they really understand that Our Great Constitution has been under assault or think its just another piece of paper, whether they want a President and Vice-President who bring real benefits to everyday Americans or they are willing to give up on being citizens of "the land of the free and the home of the brave" and continue to fall for the senseless fear-mongering tactics of a bunch of political opportunists who shamelessly sell-away the jobs and the future of US Americans! Which will it be? More of the same old crap, or a bright new day in America? Will we listen to "the angels of our better nature", as Lincoln put it, or will we vote for the beginning of the end of everything we cherish by giving those who abused authority and violated Our Constitution four more years to finally render American democracy null and void?!? To be free and brave Americans or not to be free at all, that is the question!
In spite of the current mass-media-hype-fed Palin pseudo-popularity phenomena, to add to a limited-time post-Convention poll boost for McCain, the actual massive grass-roots-activist-based efforts are very promising indeed! Yes, most national polls have McCain-Palin ahead by several points in terms of the popular vote, and yes there is very good reason for us to be very concerned and not to ever assume that just because we can win, we should win, we have millions of new voters on our side and millions of previous voters too, that victory is ours! This elections is going to be very close, as I have said all along, but if we do not behave as if we are certainly going to win, if we do not take victory for granted, if we do not succumb to complacency and inaction, then when the big day arrives we will have just enough people on our side to save America and, believe it or not, The World! Because, all joking aside, this elections is not just about the freedoms and liberties of US Americans, but about our image and reputation around The World! And ever since the Bush Administration failed to properly take advantage of the world's sympathy, support and respect for US following the inhumanly monstrous attacks on US and all humanity on 9-11-2001, ever since Bush's shameful squandering of international support for US by using the attacks as an excuse for him and his buddies, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney, to neglect going after al-Qaeda and The Taliban and launch their fiasco invasion of Iraq, ever since then The World, the rest of our fellow human beings on this fragile home-planet of ours, have lost their faith and trust in America and in our ability to be a force for good in the world, to be a beacon of Democracy and Freedom, a role-model for all other nations! And the world has been boycotting American goods, American products and America itself! And, at a time when the Bush Administration has wasted hundreds of billions of our hard-worked-for tax money and neglected our schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, and most importantly the lives of most of us working-class Americans, are we really so stupid as to expect the world to stop boycotting our products, are we really do dumb as to think that the world will not continue to turn against us and towards Russia, China and India, to mention a few economic competitors?!? Are we going to reward the same people who gave us nothing but one massive failure after another, who have ruined our economy and increased our national debt beyond anything we can imagine, by allowing "George W. McCain and Georgette W. Palin" to continue misleading America down the path of total poverty, homelessness and destruction! Are we really that mad! I THINK NOT!
The polls should concern us, but hard statistics indicate that if we do all the right things, reach out to all our fellow Americans, register every single adult American out there, and continue to stay on message, and speak truth to America, then we shall win!
Until now there have been no direct debates between Senator John McCain and Senator Barack Obama, and so many of our fellow Americans, especially those who consider themselves Undecided, who tend to be Swing-Voters, who may be disgruntled Republicans and Independents, have not yet had a chance to really decided who they are goind to vote for! Fortunately, in a strange way, the number of undecided voters is very significant, and chances are very good that most of those who have not taken sides by now, will watch the debates very closely and intensely, and will have no real choice but to vote for real positive change! To vote for the Obama-Biden ticket and not for the Bush-Bush ticket in disguise! So, do not allow despair to overwhelm you and turn you away from doing all you can to reach out to your friends, family and neighbors and suggest to them that they should watch the debates really carefully!
Now, although McCain flip-flopped on his false promise to keep these elections free from mud-slinging and outright lies, we must not assume that things will get any better in terms of how far these fake Republicans will go to Swift-boat and lie about our candidates and about our platform, our agenda for positive change, change that will reduce taxes on working-class and middle-class Americans, change that will reverse the severe damages done by the pseudo-Republicans and their Bush Administration, that will reverse the severe damage done to Our American Way of Life, that will reverse the severe harm done to our domestic and foreign interests, change that will restore America's standing in the world, dramatically improve our ability to sell our quality American goods and services to the world, and which will restore longstanding friendships and alliances, the alliances we need to effectively fight the terrorists who murdered so many of our wonderful fellow Americans and friends on 9-11-2001!
Confidence is high! Americans have had enough of almost 8 long years of shameless pseudo-Republican political opportunism and fear-mongering, of shameless divisive politics, of shameless divide and conquer poor working Americans by spreading the most disgusting lies about those who make up more than 51% of America: patriotic American Democrats, and those many Independents who can know that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz were criminally negligent when they deliberately had a policy of IGNORING OUR FBI FIELD AGENTS and their reports about people not interested in properly learning how to LAND AN AIRPLANE!!! Because whenever they, the fake Republicans who have shamelessly invaded and taken over The Grand Old Party of Honest Abe Lincoln, come out with all that rubbish about how President Clinton missed opportunities to kill bin Laden, they LIE BIG TIME! Do your own thorough investigations and research and you will find the truth that is still out there: Bill Clinton did all he could reasonably do to locate and either capture or destroy America's most dangerous enemies, but the Oil Companies kept on sending otherwise friendly Emirs and Sultans and other allies to visit bin Laden, so as to prevent US from being able to destroy them without risking destroying important moderate Arab allies in world's Oil Seaway that is The Persian Gulf! And we are talking about moderate Arab states in The Persian Gulf who even have polite relations with Israel! Who do regular business with our historic friend and ally Israel!!
As for any one else you know who might still have doubts about who to vote for: tell them to visit www.njdc.org and also to take note of the fact that even former New York City Democratic Mayor, Ed Koch, is totally for Barack Obama's Presidential ticket!
YES WE CAN DO IT NOW! SO DO IT!

If You Vote For Sarah Palin Then Don't Vote For Her Just Because You Think She Is A Smart Woman Or A Great Mom
By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher (Constitution-loving Patriotic American and Jewish, by the way)
First of all, I am, have been and will continue to be a supporter of the Obama-Biden Democratic Party Ticket for the General U.S. Elections of 2008. Just in case you’re one of those people who gets really angry after reading something only to find out that the person who wrote always had a bias and never intended to give the other side a chance.
Secondly, I am male, and, no matter how hard I might try to convince those women who want a female President as soon as humanly possible, I know that chances are slim to none that this Op-Ed piece will suffice to convince you to vote for Senator Barack Obama. But I am also somewhat feminine as a Freethinking Philosopher and I reserve my right to hope that Sense & Sensibility will ultimately prevail over Gender-Identity-Bias and the irrational subconscious fear some women have of Black men in America today!
Loaded first Paragraph! I know, and I risk losing you right here and right now, but having studied Psychology, formally and informally, and having spent much of my life deliberately observing society, human behavior and particularly the behavior of my inner sex (you’re probably going to laugh at this one: I’m a predominantly homosexual Lesbian in a male body!), which happens to be very feminine, I feel it is my solemn duty and wholehearted obligation to make every best effort I can to prevent the McCain-Palin Ticket from winning. Why? Because I have every good reason to think that that would spell disaster for America, and, thus, for The Whole World!!! Governor Palin is a very serious National Security Threat (and not at all because she happens to be a woman and mother…heck, I gladly voted for Mondale-Ferraro in 1984!), and for Senator John McCain to have invited this threat for purely opportunistic political reasons (i.e. winning at any cost and by any means!) shows just how much of a risk he is to America and The World, too!
Let me make something perfectly clear, before I get into the real nitty-gritty of this argument, it is by no means my intention to demonize Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, nor to make false statements about her past or current life. Like many women who are devout Assembly of God “Bible-believing Christian(s)”, Mrs. Palin truly believes that she is doing all she can to protect her children, family, spouse, followers, supporters and fellow congregation members, from Evil, from the Wages of Sin, from Eternal Damnation in Hell! She truly believes that we live in The End of Times, that 9-11, 7-7 and many other horrors and tragic events are absolute proof that New Testament Prophecy is factual reality and is evident in all manner of dire signs happening everywhere! She truly believes that the reason Israel and America have suffered from sick, monstrous terrorist attacks is because too many Jews and Americans have failed to follow G-d’s strict laws, in effect ‘His Commandments’, ‘His Ultimate Plan and Will’, as ‘promised to us’ by none other than ‘Jesus Christ’, ‘The Son of G-d’, and that ‘Eternal Salvation in Heaven’, following ‘The Rapture and Armageddon’, that is coming any day now, that America is waging a ‘Righteous Christian War’ against ‘The Enemies of G-d’, and that she and Alaska have a very special role to play in all of this!!! And yet, until the ‘right’ time comes, she has no intention to do anything but be a good mother to her children, protecting them from sick people, a long list which not only includes truly sick pedophiles and dangerous hard-core criminal thugs, but also includes; homosexuals, as well as other types of ‘deviant’ kinky adults having consensual intimacy with other ‘deviant’ kinky adults, poly-amorous adults, bisexuals, ‘abortionists’, ‘genocidal doctors who provide relatively safe (for the woman concerned) abortions (as opposed to dangerous ‘coat-hanger’ abortions in filthy hidden basements) and any and all people who in any way support the rights, or, as someone like her would put it, the ‘crimes’ and ‘Cardinal Sins’, of the aforementioned types of people, including Democrats, ‘Bleeding Heart Liberals’, practically all Liberals in general, ‘Commies’, ‘Pinkos’ (which rhymes with stinkos), Anarchists, Satanists, Traitors, Disloyal Americans, most Labor Union leaders, most Community Activists in most of America’s Impoverished Inner-City neighborhoods, practically every woman in The National Education Association (which is non-partisan), Witches, Warlocks, Harry Potter Fans, most (but not all) Environmentalists, members of NOW (National Organization of Women, for those of you men who should already know better), People for The American Way, Peta, Amnesty International, all Jews, Muslims and ‘Christians’ who do not vote Republican, Moose Lovers, former Presidents with family names like Clinton and Carter, actors with names like Jennifer Aniston, Sophia Bush, George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Richard Dreyfuss, Danny DeVito, Cindy Crawford, Matt Damon, Brendan Fraser, Kate Flannery, Morgan Freeman, Tom Hanks, Leonard Nimoy, Edward Norton, Sidney Poitier, Brad Pitt, Henry Winkler, Forrest Whitaker, Denzel Washington, Kathleen Turner, Meryl Streep, Martin Sheen, Sharon Stone, Wil Smith, Kate Walsh, Ben Stiller, Directors like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, intellectuals like Cornel West, Laurence Tribe, Alice Kessler-Harris, Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo (The Original New York City Free Advice Man), Capitalists like Warren Buffett, George Soros, David Geffen, Ben Cohen, Jerry Greenfield, Oprah Winfrey, musicians like Bob Dylan, Mariah Carey, Natalie Cole, Merle Haggard, Herbie Hancock, John Legend, Kris Kristofferson, Jennifer Lopez, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, American top athletes like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Hulk Hogan, Rod Smith, Greg Oden, and the names go on and on….
Now, at this point, you may be thinking; ‘I thought you said you were not going to demonize Palin’. Well, I am not demonizing her, because from her point of view she is actually truly a very good, decent, caring, loving mother, and a truly patriotic Alaska-first American patriot fighting the many sick and Evil enemies of G-d! And, with regards to actual pedophiles and hardcore criminal thugs she’s right. But with regards to most Americans, most of whom, like myself, truly understand, appreciate and love Our Country’s Great Constitution, especially one of its most fundamental parts concerning the absolute need to Separate Church from State, in effect to keep Religion out of Politics, Government and Statecraft, so that we do not end up like Iran, Taliban Afghanistan, or like most of Europe was at the time Our Great Democratic American Nation was founded, by truly some of the most wonderful people in the History of The World, such as the truly progressive Liberal Democrats Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, as well as George and Martha Washington, and so, so many other great American patriots, some Christian, some Jewish and some not religious about their Jewish or Christian roots…with regards to most Americans Governor Sarah Palin is 100% wrong, especially in her failure to truly understand, appreciate and protect Our Constitution, which is the sole basis for being Americans! She is not a demon, an agent of Satan, Lucifer, Count Dracula, Charles Manson or even Alfred E. Neumann! Of course not! She really does want to do and be good, but wanting is not the same as actually doing the right things and being reasonably tolerant and respectful of the privacy, freedoms, liberties, human rights, Constitutional Rights of all of our fellow Americans! In that sense, Governor Palin is no different than any other fanatic religious person in America, whose views, however much I and other Americans will protect their rights to hold them, are views which are totally incompatible with the offices of President and Vice-President of The United States of America! She is, however unwittingly and unintentionally, serving the very interests and goals of those sick fanatic religious extremists who murdered so many of our wonderful fellow Americans and other fellow human-beings almost exactly seven years ago, to this date, on that day that will live in infamy, September 11, 2001! And we Americans who love our Democratic way of government, our Freedoms, Liberties and Duties to Our Great Constitution, we who love The True American Way of Life, The Spirit of Independence that our founding parents fought so hard for, we cannot allow foolish people, however kind and sweet they can be at times, however generous and friendly, however much they may be great mothers, beautiful and otherwise fairly intelligent, albeit definitely not wise, women, to be one heartbeat away from The Presidency! Nor can we vote for a man who, no matter how great a war hero, how patriotic he may still mean to be, no matter how much he has ideas, a few of which may be similar to those of Senators Biden and Obama, that also mean changing the ill ways of Washington….we cannot allow a man who had such terribly poor judgment in choosing a religious fanatic, however pretty she may be (to some…my taste is different), as his running mate and someone a death’s leap away from Our Presidency, the Presidency of America!
Now, there will still be some among you who will still think that I cannot be right about her being a religious fanatic, and to those of you who think I cannot be right about Palin I sincerely implore you to do your own research, your own homework, your own investigations, and even that you demand that she answer these supposed allegations concerning her specific religious views and the extent to which she may yet suddenly be willing to renounce them! I ask you to be a good mother and/or wife, a good woman and/or supporter of women’s rights, but ultimately I ask you to be my fellow American, a good American, who truly understands, appreciates, loves and protects Our Great American Constitution, which so clearly expresses the need to separate Church from State, Religion from Political Office! I ask you to decide whether you really want to live in a Theocracy like Iran or Taliban Afghanistan, or in the Land of The Free and The Home of The Brave. And if you do the right thing I have no doubt that you will understand that McCain-Palin is the wrong choice, even if Obama-Biden is an imperfect and perhaps seemingly disturbing choice. I mean, it is totally fair that you might think Obama is a closet Muslim bent on harming America, given how some in the media have spread false rumors and given that as a Freemason he is not really religious in the way most people understand it, but he is just as much a Jew, Christian and Muslim as all Freemasons tend to be! Seriously, do you really believe for one moment that he would have won the Illinois Senate race without the majority of Chicago’s most successful Jews and Christians, if there has ever been any official statement or even private party chatter in which he would express the slightest disrespect or contempt for Our Country, his America? Do you really think that our Democratic Party and practically all of its lifelong patriotic American political leaders, especially such iconic figures as Ted Kennedy and Bill Clinton, would allow any American to become President of The United States if we did not know for sure that he is not and has never been a dangerous religious fanatic or worse??? Do you really think that though he holds (as any Freemason must) the greatest respect, equally, for Judaism, Christianity and Islam, for the common belief in One Divine G-d, he would be anything but totally opposed to and disgusted by the kind of phoney, fake Muslims who cowardly murdered thousands of fathers, mothers and children on 9-11??? Do you really think that this mixed-race man, whose beloved maternal grandparents and relatives, who he always speaks about so affectionately, so lovingly and so sincerely, whose mother was the daughter of average White American Christians, whose wife and children he has encouraged to share his basic Christian values would dishonor his loved ones??? Do you really think that this knowledgeable minor expert on Constitutional Law (neither McCain nor Palin can compare), who has had no qualms about praying at My Jewish People’s Wailing Wall….our Beloved Kotel in Yerushalayim, only a few leaps away from the place we Jews believe/think G-d created Adam...who has voted with Senator Biden in favor of protecting our valiant American women and men in arms, providing them with Mine Resistant Ambush Protected armored vehicles, so desperately needed and wanted by our forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, whose every word and thought is about restoring America’s greatness throughout the world, about making America strong at home and abroad, about going after the terrorists who attacked us, especially bin Laden & Company, and their Taliban accomplices, in Afghanistan and Pakistan (if need be), would ever do otherwise and wreck his own family’s future and even risk the safety of America and The World??? Do you really think that Senator Joe Biden would hesitate one moment to take charge and protect America and defend us from our enemies, domestic and foreign, should Obama be found unable to fulfill his duties?? Are we really going to allow a religious fanatic, however shiny eyed and dashing, or a man who has somehow lost his senses in so many ways (flip-flopping left and right, especially most recently) to take control of our nation?
I think not!
To my way of thinking America is truly facing the ultimate litmus test ever in the history of world politics and governance!
And I think most Americans, especially America’s women, would rather vote for a safe and sensible America, one in which by 2012 it is more than likely a woman shall be elected President! By the way, my very special inside sources tell me, that Senator Barack Obama may have made a deal with Senator Hillary Clinton to let her or the woman of her choice become the Democratic Party’s first female Presidential candidate in 2012!
So, do your homework, your own investigations, your own fact checking, see the truth about Palin’s fanatic religious views for yourself, and then make the right decision this November.
G-d Bless You, G-d Bless America and may a woman be Our President in 2012!

First of all, I am, have been and will continue to be a supporter of the Obama-Biden Democratic Party Ticket for the General U.S. Elections of 2008. Just in case you’re one of those people who gets really angry after reading something only to find out that the person who wrote always had a bias and never intended to give the other side a chance.
Secondly, I am male, and, no matter how hard I might try to convince those women who want a female President as soon as humanly possible, I know that chances are slim to none that this Op-Ed piece will suffice to convince you to vote for Senator Barack Obama. But I am also somewhat feminine as a Freethinking Philosopher and I reserve my right to hope that Sense & Sensibility will ultimately prevail over Gender-Identity-Bias and the irrational subconscious fear some women have of Black men in America today!
Loaded first Paragraph! I know, and I risk losing you right here and right now, but having studied Psychology, formally and informally, and having spent much of my life deliberately observing society, human behavior and particularly the behavior of my inner sex (you’re probably going to laugh at this one: I’m a predominantly homosexual Lesbian in a male body!), which happens to be very feminine, I feel it is my solemn duty and wholehearted obligation to make every best effort I can to prevent the McCain-Palin Ticket from winning. Why? Because I have every good reason to think that that would spell disaster for America, and, thus, for The Whole World!!! Governor Palin is a very serious National Security Threat (and not at all because she happens to be a woman and mother…heck, I gladly voted for Mondale-Ferraro in 1984!), and for Senator John McCain to have invited this threat for purely opportunistic political reasons (i.e. winning at any cost and by any means!) shows just how much of a risk he is to America and The World, too!
Let me make something perfectly clear, before I get into the real nitty-gritty of this argument, it is by no means my intention to demonize Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, nor to make false statements about her past or current life. Like many women who are devout Assembly of God “Bible-believing Christian(s)”, Mrs. Palin truly believes that she is doing all she can to protect her children, family, spouse, followers, supporters and fellow congregation members, from Evil, from the Wages of Sin, from Eternal Damnation in Hell! She truly believes that we live in The End of Times, that 9-11, 7-7 and many other horrors and tragic events are absolute proof that New Testament Prophecy is factual reality and is evident in all manner of dire signs happening everywhere! She truly believes that the reason Israel and America have suffered from sick, monstrous terrorist attacks is because too many Jews and Americans have failed to follow G-d’s strict laws, in effect ‘His Commandments’, ‘His Ultimate Plan and Will’, as ‘promised to us’ by none other than ‘Jesus Christ’, ‘The Son of G-d’, and that ‘Eternal Salvation in Heaven’, following ‘The Rapture and Armageddon’, that is coming any day now, that America is waging a ‘Righteous Christian War’ against ‘The Enemies of G-d’, and that she and Alaska have a very special role to play in all of this!!! And yet, until the ‘right’ time comes, she has no intention to do anything but be a good mother to her children, protecting them from sick people, a long list which not only includes truly sick pedophiles and dangerous hard-core criminal thugs, but also includes; homosexuals, as well as other types of ‘deviant’ kinky adults having consensual intimacy with other ‘deviant’ kinky adults, poly-amorous adults, bisexuals, ‘abortionists’, ‘genocidal doctors who provide relatively safe (for the woman concerned) abortions (as opposed to dangerous ‘coat-hanger’ abortions in filthy hidden basements) and any and all people who in any way support the rights, or, as someone like her would put it, the ‘crimes’ and ‘Cardinal Sins’, of the aforementioned types of people, including Democrats, ‘Bleeding Heart Liberals’, practically all Liberals in general, ‘Commies’, ‘Pinkos’ (which rhymes with stinkos), Anarchists, Satanists, Traitors, Disloyal Americans, most Labor Union leaders, most Community Activists in most of America’s Impoverished Inner-City neighborhoods, practically every woman in The National Education Association (which is non-partisan), Witches, Warlocks, Harry Potter Fans, most (but not all) Environmentalists, members of NOW (National Organization of Women, for those of you men who should already know better), People for The American Way, Peta, Amnesty International, all Jews, Muslims and ‘Christians’ who do not vote Republican, Moose Lovers, former Presidents with family names like Clinton and Carter, actors with names like Jennifer Aniston, Sophia Bush, George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Richard Dreyfuss, Danny DeVito, Cindy Crawford, Matt Damon, Brendan Fraser, Kate Flannery, Morgan Freeman, Tom Hanks, Leonard Nimoy, Edward Norton, Sidney Poitier, Brad Pitt, Henry Winkler, Forrest Whitaker, Denzel Washington, Kathleen Turner, Meryl Streep, Martin Sheen, Sharon Stone, Wil Smith, Kate Walsh, Ben Stiller, Directors like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, intellectuals like Cornel West, Laurence Tribe, Alice Kessler-Harris, Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo (The Original New York City Free Advice Man), Capitalists like Warren Buffett, George Soros, David Geffen, Ben Cohen, Jerry Greenfield, Oprah Winfrey, musicians like Bob Dylan, Mariah Carey, Natalie Cole, Merle Haggard, Herbie Hancock, John Legend, Kris Kristofferson, Jennifer Lopez, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, American top athletes like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Hulk Hogan, Rod Smith, Greg Oden, and the names go on and on….
Now, at this point, you may be thinking; ‘I thought you said you were not going to demonize Palin’. Well, I am not demonizing her, because from her point of view she is actually truly a very good, decent, caring, loving mother, and a truly patriotic Alaska-first American patriot fighting the many sick and Evil enemies of G-d! And, with regards to actual pedophiles and hardcore criminal thugs she’s right. But with regards to most Americans, most of whom, like myself, truly understand, appreciate and love Our Country’s Great Constitution, especially one of its most fundamental parts concerning the absolute need to Separate Church from State, in effect to keep Religion out of Politics, Government and Statecraft, so that we do not end up like Iran, Taliban Afghanistan, or like most of Europe was at the time Our Great Democratic American Nation was founded, by truly some of the most wonderful people in the History of The World, such as the truly progressive Liberal Democrats Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, as well as George and Martha Washington, and so, so many other great American patriots, some Christian, some Jewish and some not religious about their Jewish or Christian roots…with regards to most Americans Governor Sarah Palin is 100% wrong, especially in her failure to truly understand, appreciate and protect Our Constitution, which is the sole basis for being Americans! She is not a demon, an agent of Satan, Lucifer, Count Dracula, Charles Manson or even Alfred E. Neumann! Of course not! She really does want to do and be good, but wanting is not the same as actually doing the right things and being reasonably tolerant and respectful of the privacy, freedoms, liberties, human rights, Constitutional Rights of all of our fellow Americans! In that sense, Governor Palin is no different than any other fanatic religious person in America, whose views, however much I and other Americans will protect their rights to hold them, are views which are totally incompatible with the offices of President and Vice-President of The United States of America! She is, however unwittingly and unintentionally, serving the very interests and goals of those sick fanatic religious extremists who murdered so many of our wonderful fellow Americans and other fellow human-beings almost exactly seven years ago, to this date, on that day that will live in infamy, September 11, 2001! And we Americans who love our Democratic way of government, our Freedoms, Liberties and Duties to Our Great Constitution, we who love The True American Way of Life, The Spirit of Independence that our founding parents fought so hard for, we cannot allow foolish people, however kind and sweet they can be at times, however generous and friendly, however much they may be great mothers, beautiful and otherwise fairly intelligent, albeit definitely not wise, women, to be one heartbeat away from The Presidency! Nor can we vote for a man who, no matter how great a war hero, how patriotic he may still mean to be, no matter how much he has ideas, a few of which may be similar to those of Senators Biden and Obama, that also mean changing the ill ways of Washington….we cannot allow a man who had such terribly poor judgment in choosing a religious fanatic, however pretty she may be (to some…my taste is different), as his running mate and someone a death’s leap away from Our Presidency, the Presidency of America!
Now, there will still be some among you who will still think that I cannot be right about her being a religious fanatic, and to those of you who think I cannot be right about Palin I sincerely implore you to do your own research, your own homework, your own investigations, and even that you demand that she answer these supposed allegations concerning her specific religious views and the extent to which she may yet suddenly be willing to renounce them! I ask you to be a good mother and/or wife, a good woman and/or supporter of women’s rights, but ultimately I ask you to be my fellow American, a good American, who truly understands, appreciates, loves and protects Our Great American Constitution, which so clearly expresses the need to separate Church from State, Religion from Political Office!
