#1 That's "GULAG" (as I hope everyone here knows)

#2 An experiment in re-education:

We round up the paid AI staffers, put half of them in a camp simulating conditions at Gitmo, the other half go in a re-created Gulag camp.

After a month they switch places.

After another month, the survivors can vote on which they think was worse and select the camp in which they would prefer to spend another year of incarceration.
They can also select from a 1-10 scale what they believe to be the most accurate degree of difference; with 1 being "identical in every respect" and 10, "Are you fucking crazy? I'm lucky to be alive."

#3 "it is simply a media-cult corporate fund raising operation with no real concern at all for human rights"

That's the most concise description of AI I've ever read. Applies to almost all of the so-called "human rights" orgs and NGO's, as well.

My first realization, the death of my naivete, was when I found out that The March of Dimes (founded by FDR) went looking for another cause to "champion" when the Salk vaccine proved successful and was massively distributed in 1954-55. Now, allied with the Easter Seals folks, they've gone for the blanket category of "birth defects". Charity Navigator gives them only 1 "star" - out of 4 - which means they suck, in terms of efficiently serving the cause they pretend to espouse. Park Paradise for the management.

Dead solid perfect, AC.

#4 BTW, to my surprise, AI-USA was also "reviewed" by Charity Navigator and given 2 "stars" of 4. The International org isn't rated - prolly cuz they aren't forced to open their books - they're UK-based, as charities based in the US are.

Note that Charity Navigator ratings must be taken with a cowlick (that's a big-assed block of salt for you city folk) - they rated the Carter Center 4 of 4 "stars", lol. The rating is for how much money actually makes it to fund the stated purpose -- it doesn't address the question of if they're crazy or socialist tools, lol.

#5 Cuz the still mostly LeftMedia is, for the time being, the "Democratic Party", while the Dems themselves, i.e. Clintonian Dems-for-Repubs/Rightists-for Dems, aka Repubs-for-Socialism, etal. are trying to focii on destroying, disrupting and subverting the GOP-Right from within. The Failed Left wants War, it wants America to be attacked, cuz it believes that America's Federalist, Three-Branches, Constitutional Repub form/system of Govt. and DemoCapitalist economy and society will NOT survive the rigors of expansion unto new Global Empire. Contemporay Leftism is about POLITICS, etc. i..e getting someone to do or submit to your will or desires [ Islam???]. WHEN AMERICA IS DONE MAKING EMPIRE INDIRECTLY FOR THE REDS, eg RUS [Russia] = USR [United States Socialist Republic], OUR HEAD WILL BE CUT OFF LIKE NICK BERG!
