Since the Coffee Party movement is gaining ground every day I thought I'd post a link to our previous Gaia discussion thread "Latte Party" over at Google documents. I hosted a Coffee Party meeting last Saturday in Novato CA and will host another in Napa CA on Saturday 3/27. Many of all political stripes feel we are not being represented in our government so this is a genuine opportunity to organize and be heard.

I like anything that tells these obnoxious tea baggers to fuck up
I am transpartisan by the way.
hahahhah

HI gaddy

I´m a gambler in general, even if I am a good poker and bridge player, given I have a good sense of computing probabilities. As I m not involved in a corrupted system that plays the roulette with people´s money, I don´t have to deal with the ethical problems these bankmen ar burdened with.

I thought they all these bankers were good christians in the pionneer spirit of old America? ahahahah
So If you are angry as you said, fine to be that btw, then so why it is forbidden to "get mad" at illegal settlements in the occupied territories without getting back grotesques lables like neonazi or anything so ridiculous alike?

These AIPAC moffos are manipulating the democratic public sphere, because of their mighty media influences, using an inquisitive language to dismiss any opposite views, all that of course in order to avoid to confront their own contradictions.


Norman Finkelstein, an american jew, a so called history revisionist (what is mainstream history btw? ahhah)
has literally been persecuted by that angry law professor Alan Dershowitz and his campus watch network (a gestapo like organisation actually) because he rejected the so called official narratives on the birh of the State of Israel, by claiming there was a an ethnic cleansing goign on at that time, forcing thousands of palestinians to leave their homes.

Cool inquisitors in a so called great democracy. Very amazing. hahahahah

you tell me.


And: well Milton Friedman or Keynes and their followeres are unfortunately still "ruling" in the field of economics. BTW, this discipline should not gain a status equivalent to physics because it is common knowledge that its models always fail against empirical facts. hahahahha

A quick addition.

If you listen to somebody like say, Paul Krugman, what you are getting is the academic POV. IOW, he is not a real player. He is like the guy who watches football but can't play the game. Or if he tried, he'd be a bum. :-).

What he really wants to do is debate philosophy, whether he was right all along as a Neo-Keynesian and not from the Chicago School. He waited 30 years for this !

The reason they like Keynes is that is was a real investor. He put his money where is mouth is. Krugman can't do that.

Now Gaddy is a player, that means you have to have a batting average! You have to produce and that's where the problem comes in. And we you need an Umpire, yada yada. But you have to produce.

And now refer to Cicero. ;-)

PS.correction

I am not a gambler.
no slip of the tongue at work here anyway.
ahhahhh

O what, an Israel debate? Let me play...

(btw xibalba could you please stop quoting everything that was said before. stop using so much storing space, you idiot.)

Concerning Israel, it is true that the Nazi accusation is oftentimes used as an argumentative wooden mallet against every criticism of the Jewish Nation in Middle East, be it constructive or not. Such a thing happened to the honorable Judge Goldstone who was prohibited to visit his grandson's Bar Mitsva. Read more.

Same with Prof Finkelstein. This gentleman with the falsetto voice held a formbidable speech at the University of Waterloo which you can view here. NSFW! Don't watch this if can't see little girls cry. I warned you.

(~_~)
you call me idiot, maricon?
I´ve just noticed that the reply system generates that sort of shit, tell that to the web designer instead.
And apologize calling me that way,
right?

the rest, you must be a fucking antisemite to dare quoting such stuff,
ahhahhaha
So finally I am worth talking to again? Hm

Alright, no curse words, no animal names, no Hitler analogy. Let's behave like gentlemen.

xo
Alan Dershowitz is a liar, a hater, a creep, and that is very scary this person is a law professor of Harvard.Incredible how Norman lost his professor chair because of that vulture´s lobbying against him.
Chomsky is right out that asshole.

well anyhow whta baout these coffee parties?
hope they can be a counterbalance to those defiling milicians.
well let me tell that I take all that stuff with distance even if I used harsh terms like vulture. I just feel sorry for Norman´s case, and outraged by Dershowitz´s vilifying methods.
l Hope he will get a new chair and go on doing good research.

What paths lie ahead for religion and spirituality in the 21st Century? How might the insights of modernity and post-modernity impact and inform humanity's ancient wisdom traditions? How are we to enact, together, new spiritual visions – independently, or within our respective traditions – that can respond adequately to the challenges of our times?

This group is for anyone interested in exploring these questions and tracing out the horizons of an integral post-metaphysical spirituality.
