    • Simpletons want to be simple; simplistic platitudes disregarding a complex world; examining information in relation to the adversarial needs of producers and consumers of information; hypocrites at the middle who trumpet to their followers what they don’t follow
    • The Nancy Pelosi Response of Type “Are you serious? Are you serious? Because I Don’t Have the Technical Knowledge to be Able to Respond to Your Challenge,” A Derivative Being the Woit-Type of Type “That Doesn’t Deserve A Response Either, Probably Because I Haven’t Thought About the Technical Logic Underneath Popper’s Falsifiable Any More Than Pelosi Has Thought About the Technical Details of the Constitution”
    • Woit-types again demonstrating a fundamental misunderstanding of Popperian falsifiable, where I ignore the Popperian illusion that falsifying universal statements can establish science on a deductive rather than inductive foundation, for the negation of a universal quantifier is an existential quantifier, and Popper’s very objection to universal claims being based on the existential, on inductive evidence, means that the use of any existential quantifier in a science claim makes that claim inductive rather than deductive; in summary, a claim with a universal quantifier, after negated, contains an existential quantifier, therefore the negation of the statement is inductive and not deductive as Popper says, you can’t have it both ways; using experiment as a basis for a logic claim can never result in anything but inductive logic, even when falsifying a universal, but, again, I ignore Popper’s illusion for the moment
    • The socialism-lite of George Wharletto Bush made Republican Gigolo Texas Governor Rick Perry lethargic, only the hard-core socialism of Boot Licker of the Masses Barack Obama is able to energize Rick Perry
    • Politician first, general second, Army chief of staff General Casey with weak knees propagandizing about the bad religion of Slam
    • Tom Cruise, he loves all the Scientology suckers of the world
    • The Afghan war, and when Afghans have a will of their own
    • Observationally-sacrificed science by consensus, Peter Woit and Sean Carroll as archetypes, those willing to operate past some observationless threshold, which is why resistance from Woit-types can do no more than lead a horse to a different watering hole
    • The payback in war of setting false expectations
    • Useful math as a foundation which prevents the corruption of math
    • McChrystal, an aggressive man who knows when he has the advantage
    • There’s no war magic for McChrystal
    • The Republican propaganda that results from requiring that we always win, from not recognizing that the world is a big place, that 300 million people aren’t all powerful
    • Rick Perry, Republican whore politician whose motto is “never admit you’re wrong unless you have to,” a man who never opposed Big G George Whore Bush, yet acts like he’s some defender of limited government now that Obama’s in office
    • Moore trying to make himself out as the little guy
