Re: A mix of the batshit crazy and valid criticisms of the inept Obama. Isaac Send a noteboard - 04/06/2013 05:32:08 PM

View original post It would make a lot of people VERY uneasy, for the exact reasons that Card so inartfully (as usual) describes (Card is an abysmal writer, and I think he only came up with one good idea in his life - Ender's Game - which he then managed to squeeze out another good book about - Ender's Shadow).

Speaker for the Dead was also pretty good, I'd rate it, Ender's Game, and Ender's Shadow as three classic of sci-fi, though the other installments are fairly weak and I don't care much for his other stuff.

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

It would probably make for a good book with name changes and set 20 years down the road Isaac - 04/06/2013 12:34:22 PM 645 Views
I'd drop "good" from the title *NM* Larry - 05/06/2013 07:24:00 AM 381 Views
I think you're overlooking how low the bar is Isaac - 05/06/2013 02:07:00 PM 692 Views

Pretty much, although I'm slightly more charitable toward Obama Larry - 05/06/2013 07:20:06 AM 720 Views
But the Republicans have been willing to compromise Tom - 05/06/2013 02:37:42 PM 749 Views
It's hard to read this. Ghavrel - 04/06/2013 03:43:08 PM 751 Views
Also, Card sure thinks highly of himself, doesn't he? *NM* Ghavrel - 04/06/2013 03:44:37 PM 379 Views
I don't know where you get the racism in that statement Tom - 04/06/2013 03:54:30 PM 758 Views

I hate playing Devil's Advocate for this guy but that would apply to a lot of college students *NM* Isaac - 05/06/2013 04:50:45 AM 383 Views
Nobody complained about this when Paul Ryan was a VP candidate *NM* Roland00 - 05/06/2013 02:16:47 AM 385 Views
Only black people are lazy bums who don't work. White people focus on their studies. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/06/2013 05:08:14 AM 353 Views

Depends on whether you think Rush Limbaugh and his ilk are mainstream or not, I guess. Ghavrel - 05/06/2013 06:00:51 PM 726 Views
I thought the "NaPo" part was the more race-tinged part Larry - 05/06/2013 07:17:16 AM 904 Views
Yes. That's clearly a "they're coming for your families, your children..." sort of fear-mongering. *NM* Tom - 05/06/2013 02:43:41 PM 377 Views
As opposed to anything else that OSC writes? *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 08/06/2013 09:39:54 PM 585 Views
