Most intelligent people I know who own small businesses are conservative because they don't want any more taxes to pay. It's not so much that they agree with the conservative ideals. Just that they agree with government not taxing them.
I feel like the conservative ideals are just stuck in the past... Intolerance of ###### marriage, marijuana, birth control... All things which are gaining more and more acceptance as time goes on.
American liberals are viewed as conservative by the rest of the world.
This is the youtube thread, but maybe this would make for an interesting stand-alone thread... on the other hand, it would probably spark a ton of conflict. That woman is basically a gigantic troll. :P

Very cool video, and I love the other ones I'm linking to off of it. I always loved the Gorillaz videos (and their music too). Seems like 4°C's thing is to make lots of clips from things that look like series or movies but actually aren't, so it's like torture that I can't watch the full movie/series because it doesn't exist :/

Not a Youtube video, but worth linking to: A phenomenon known in Denmark as <a href="http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=970_1257546785" target="_blank">"black sun,"</a> thousands of starlings swarming together. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sort_sol_%28bird_flock%29" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a> has more info if you're curious.
That looks awesome, apocalyptic almost. It reminds me of this: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tak3PXi2QN8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tak3PXi2QN8</a> Even though those were a lot more bats they flew out in groups and in long stretched helixes instead of one huge flock.

There's 13 eps of this and you can find 1 through 11 easily enough. 12 and 13 don't seem to have subtitled versions out yet though :/
