Question 72

Question 72

So....Pelosi is caught between two options, to look foolhardy by going to Taiwan or look cowardly or subservient by not going. 
How could those options have emerged from an intelligent office?

Democrats are organizing to vote in primaries for Republicans they think are weak and will be easier to beat. Anyone who looks with pride at the history of the American political structure and dreams of the democratic battle of ideas in the public marketplace should throw up. What could this mean? Irony in pirating an old Rush Limbaugh joke? Doubtful. Irony is rare on the Left. More likely it is an absence of new, positive ideas and fear of presenting the old ones they have. So rather than develop programs based on appealing philosophy, they try to hamstring their opponents. Probably because they can't kidnap them. Yet.

al-Zawahri is said to have been killed by an American drone in Afghanistan. A murderous guy. It is peculiar that so many revolutionaries come from physician ranks--maybe not so much if analyzed proportionally, but it seems so. At least there are a high number of physicians who had a revolutionary impact:
Joseph Warren, Benjamen Rush, Guevera, Marat, Sun Yat-sen, Alberto Garcia, Alan Berkman
