Looking at Beijing’s not-so-flat-world seven years of building for the Olympics, Thomas Friedman says, with utter hypocritical sincerity, that we sadly missed the boat and need to do the same. No mention of his support, his unblinking, unwavering support, for building all the military hardware and invading all the supposed battlefields of the “global war on terror) (ever notice how much GWOT sounds like “snot”?) in the past seven years?
Tom, the column would have had more meaning if your apology had been attached somewhere.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
