Wrap-around

[barfo]

I just saw a news article where Ron Paul said he'd consider Dennis Kucinich as Secretary of Defense.

This raises an interesting question of whether a coalition extremist party could succeed. Take the far right and the far left and join them together. What do you have? The political spectrum is in some ways a circle rather than a straight line (or a sphere rather than a diamond-shaped diagram). Kucinich and Paul do have some things in common.

No, I don't think it would work either. But it would be fun.

Can you describe the diamond-shaped diagram?

Can you describe the diamond-shaped diagram?

Yes I can.

Yes, that's exactly how I had it pictured, too.

3 bases and a home plate. The Pentagon might deserve its own corner, though.

If you labeled all 4 axes, not just the 2 you did, it would become a 4-dimensional graph. Add colors and it would sparkle like a girl's best friend.

Yes I can.

According to that, I'm the far right.

According to that, I'm the far right.

You've never been right, MARIS.

Given the subject matter, maybe you should rephrase that.

I'm still holding out hope for the Bachmann - Palin ticket. I mean if you're going to go for "crazy," go all out I say.

 

[jlprk]

I'd rather see Glen Rice under Palin.

It worked for Lincoln.

I like the idea of having people within the cabinet who have differing ideas and political philosophies.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

BWAAA HAHAHAHA!!!!!

Dats funny.

 

[MARIS61]

It worked for Lincoln.

With a Presidency that presided over the largest slaughter of Americans in history, ironically BY Americans, and ended with his assassination by an American, I don't think ANYTHING worked for Lincoln.

Here, here.

Except when one realizes he preserved the Union.
