He's got a point there. From what I've heard, Avatar is pretty awful.

#2 A poll among UN general assembly delegates found that the clear majority believe that the US Moon landing was just another Hollywood production. And that was not among the most ignorant and primitive ideas they hold.

It is downright amazing that such fools are able to run nations.

#4 I remember reading a book (here) after 9/11 that held Mahathir up as a model for how tolerant and modern Islam really is. The irony is beyond parody.

#5 "The irony is beyond parody."

He's an Indian claiming to be Malay and the Malays bought it all, lock, stock and barrel. His teacher father was an Indian from Kerala, India.

This self-righteous smirky moral moron is also a demagogue and a cheap sophist with a stinky mouth.
