I first heard this on Hardball with Chris Matthews on MSNBC and I was thinking to myself whether the Vice-President was actually serious about what he just said. Maybe I'm misinterpreting what he was saying about it cause it seemed like it was mainly associated with trade deals and agreements and not the idea of becoming a one world government.

one renegade opinion: Globalism, man. Why do you think all the crap in Wallmart is so cheap? I'm not hardline in any direction politically, but I accept the inevitability of globalism. Right now the West is still exploiting the rest of the world for cheap in exchange for our soul...that is the path the consumer has chosen.
Think of it this way...maybe if the US and Europe bleed off their excesses we'll see more magic players crawling out of the shanty towns in India and other third world countries. PT Dubai...well dubai isn't third world, there are spoiled rich jerks like us everywhere.
I'd be perfectly alright with everyone else in the country being as poor as me, as long as they don't have guns.

"Mr. Madison, what you've just said ... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul..."

Yeah, yeah...I'm not too serious about any political position so my post lacked serious attention. I'm a globalist...not a nationalist. When I see nations cooperating, it makes me happy. I'm going to be ruled by powers and events out of my control for the rest of my life, so I only hope they are just and peaceful and cooperative. I'm not going to to preach the libertarian science like many are today to make myself look smart. I understand that is the smart thing, but long term it breaks down too like any system. This system Earth and it's inhabitants, humans, are inherently broken and no governmental system will ever satisfy me or the majority of humans. I only hope we live long happy lives.
I choose to be ignorant and don't care what this deal involves. There is nothing we can do to stop it. I will not commandeer this thread to preach my opinion.
God isn't real, so his mercy is void.

The term Third World arose during the Cold War to define countries that remained non-aligned with either NATO (with the United States, Western European nations and their allies representing the First World), or the Communist Bloc (with the Soviet Union, the People's Republic of China, Cuba and their allies representing the Second World). This terminology provided a way of broadly categorizing the nations of the Earth into three groups based on social, political, and economic divisions.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
