Orson Scott Card On The War On Terror
I've never read his novels, but my stock in him just went up. Expected something like this from Loki.

So Newsweek kills people with a false story that is actually a lie (unlike anything President Bush ever said about Iraq and weapons of mass destruction), and nothing happens to the perpetrators.


Yea, I stopped paying attention at about that part.

Wow... This guy can't possibly believe what he's saying, can he?

assumptive and disjointed. if he's trying to engage in some serious argument, i can't find it, or even a good starting point. he uses preemptive ridicule to stave off ridicule. smartland? mormons? puritans? even loki makes more sense than this. orson needs an editor.

a) where are those WMDs again?
b) if he thinks what bush said wasn't a lie, then he has no grounds to call flubbing the details of quran desecration a lie.

fyi, this was referenced here. you might glean a little bit of insight there, vlad. of course, take with a grain of salt. not that his half-cocked 'essays' do anything to counter the image being presented.

i don't care if he's a fascist. i don't care if he's ghandi. if he has a point to make, he should be able to do it in a manner that doesn't resemble the result of a shitfight in a monkeyhouse. i think his editors should have won those awards instead. all this does is provide a glimpse at the thought train of someone who could maybe benefit from a lot of ritalin.

Some of his novels aren't bad if you can ignore his moralistic crap and just enjoy the story, but he does tend to ramble on. What more can you expect from a card-carrying Mormon though. He lives in Utah, for crying out loud..

yeah, he's a talented fiction writer...

vlad, et al. specifically:

You see, I'm not very convinced that Card even wrote the books.

On the phone and in his incoherent published reply, Card repeatedly shows ignorance of what he himself purportedly wrote. I simply cannot imagine how you could write such a stunningly well crafted piece of work (inasmuch as it is wildly popular and deeply affects people) without being aware of every fibre and splinter of its composition. About the third or fourth time I heard Card say something wasn't in his book that I knew was, I began to suspect that it was more of a committee effort.

Its sad that people just can't read a book and enjoy it, instead of analyzing every freakin line of the book.

But if you have seen this weeks news, the Newsweeks story was true after all.

Kick the Quran Here


Oh.... those were only isolated incidents and nothing to kill over.

His novels are among my faves. He should stick to what he knows.

This is awesome.

This is the first pornsite I've found in years that I'd actually advertise to swarmers. When you first load it up, it looks just like every crappy scam site out there, except that it's real. It's huge, it's updated constantly, there's no spam, no popups, and no bullshit -- and it's completely free. When you sign up through that link above and respond to the confirmation email, I make a bit of loose change.

See what other swarmers have to say about it. People love this place, so I feel fine about sending you there and am confident you will enjoy boners.
