No, it's not a right-wing Evangelical saying that. It's a Russian scholar.
"Panarin argued that Americans are in moral decline, saying their great psychological stress is evident from school shootings, the size of the prison population and the number of gay men."

Lesbians - at least the hot ones - get a pass, as usual.
I'm sure it has something to do with gay men (and/or overcrowded prisons), but what exactly is a "rump state"?
Do you agree with that statement, Gothampc?
i never pass a hot lesbian, phyllis.
your living room, reg.
i am glad to see that i am not the only one who sees the inevitability of the eventual president for life obama's martial law declaration. but they won't call it that. they'll call it something like "the national safety and security act of 2010" and tell us it's for our own good. people here will champion it, and compare it to the patriot act and opine that even if it does restrict civil liberties, seize private property, abolish freedom of speech and declare the constitution void that it is better than anything ever was under bush. they will say this through double digit national unemployment, gas rationing, bread lines, the disappearing of opposition leaders, the establishment of re-education camps and the abandonment of the electoral process.
School shootings? That is sooooo late 90s. He might as well be busting out the Third Eye Blind CDs while he drives his Saturn to his appearance in an Old Navy commercials with Marcus Schenkenberg and Morgan Fairchild.

Don't forget the chimp pre-meltdown.
Well, at least the Northeast will become part of the EU. Yay!! Health Care for everyone!
That article is incredible!
"Panarin argued that Americans are in moral decline, saying their great psychological stress is evident from school shootings, the size of the prison population and the number of gay men."
As opposed to vodka-saturated Russians? I'd be interested to know what the relative life-expectancies are in both countries.
"I was there recently and things are far from good," he said. "What's happened is the collapse of the American dream."
Did he go to see Follies? Someone should have explained it was written and set in the 1970s.
"He predicted Russia and China would emerge from the economic turmoil stronger and said the two nations should work together"
Putin and Mejedev are obviously too thick to realise they'd end up playing lapdog to the Chinese leadership. Somehow I can't see the Rambo-wannabe being happy in that role.
I'm not trying to belittle the gravity of the present situation here but the thinking described in that article is such a wrong and short-sighted response.
I want to drop WV, SC, Tenn, and Kentucky from Atlantic America. SC can go to Texas, and the others can go to Central.

Thanks but no thanks Papa. I stick to planes, trains and automobiles.
Wow. When something makes Goth stand back and say "That's too reactionary" you know you've stumbled onto a serious looney toon.
you don't want some o' dis? yeah, yer probably an effin' lesbian...oh, wait...
bb, where do you see goth disagreeing with this?
I don't know what's funnier in this Russian's future scenario: "under Mexican influence" or "under Canadian influence"?
what air you sayin', eh?

No, it's not a right-wing Evangelical saying that. This time
Once the fundies rid the country of the scourge of homo men (and I guess lesbians, too) to whom will they turn their attention?

You better rethink that. Jack Daniels is made in Tenn.
So this means Russian get Palin? YAY! It's a deal!
They must have known this would not be taken seriously (or am I overestimating them) so what are they hoping to achieve by publicising it? Is it somehow supposed to reduce bargaining power for the US proposals to Russia on Iran?
this is russia. putin turned off the gas to europe to make a point once. someone made that letter to medvedev public and i don't think it was the russians. putin doesn't get pushed around.
and not taken seriously? maybe not in the united states, but has everyone forgotten that the mantra that has been repeated ad nauseum here for the last five years that the world hates us and does not trust us? did everyone expect that electing obama was going to magically dissipate that overnight? the american people are not the audience for that speech.
the administration has decided to play chicken with a gangster. wonder who will blink first? the former kgb goon or the guy who voted present?
