Question: Friday

If there was another Caitlin, with my exact DNA, who lived my exact life, would she and I be the same? Is there something more to a person than their genetics and experiences, or are we shaped entirely by things we have little control over?

(Guess which Star Trek movie I just watched...)

Quote: Saturday

"Naturally the common people don't want war... But after all it is the leaders of a country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along... All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger." -Hermann Goering.

Goering said this in 1936; it still applies.

Hundreds of Afghan votes declared invalid

After the recent democratic election in Afghanistan, there is significant evidence of widespread voter fraud. In some provinces, the number of votes signify that more than 100 percent of eligible voters cast ballots on election day. The linked article also says that "'The result sheet in one ballot box indicated 550 ballots for a candidate, but there were only 35 ballots in the box,'... Other ballot boxes contained hundreds of votes for certain candidates, but none were folded, "proving they were not cast through a ballot box slot,' the commision said."
