The only thing you need to know about politics is stated in the seven books located in the Hydlaa sewers. Go read them.

If all people need to understands about politics would be as simple as 7 books then the world would be much better place...

I wouldn`t be so sure about that is this particular case, Dilihin.

No, but I've read about that same concept elsewhere - learning to "speak the language" of the person you are debating with. As for the discussion on fairness vs morality, another division that I've read about between Republicans and Democrats is that of using logical arguments vs. emotional arguments. ( Some people are swayed more buy the emotional content of the argument than by the logical content )

As for this reference to Ben and Harris, I'll have to google that.

Thank you, Rigwyn, for teaching instead of scolding.

And regarding my own government ... yes, I should be so proud now to have a new Federal President who may have been involved in the torture of an innocent person.

I read a little about the case, but don't know what Steinmeier's reason was for not accepting Murat.
