Reflections on Vaclav Havel's "Summer Meditations"

The most surprising thing about his discussions so far is the connection he makes between a moral society and a functioning government. One great quote he makes is "What good, for instance would a law be if no one respected it, no one defended it, and no one tried responsibly to follow it." Havel talkes at length about the...

BritneySpears really sux. In the prelude to the war every Hollywood person that rose up and made a coherent argument against the war was villified completely. Then, Britney gets up and says:

"Honestly, I think we should just trust our president in every decision that he makes and we should just support that."
