HISTORY IN THE MAKING 2008-2016

Good luck!

We've spent a good many years discussing politics, life, society and history. Most of all, the makers of history. The great events that changed the world - people, places, actions. Small acts have changed its hard-worn course, and effort and circumstance can make of its small actors immortal greats. In line with that sentiment, it seems pertinent now to recognize the potential of those who've made up this community for years, obvious through their contributions to the spirited debate and discussion that has proceeded here. HITM has sadly gone silent, though perhaps not lacking for things to say about making history, but rather for the realization that it is time we all commenced to do so, and make our mark.

Good luck to you all, see you in the history books!

PENN: The collaborative opportunity in Haiti, when you talk about Hugo Chavez, and some of the other people who are demonized [think Castro], and you know, when some of these countries accuse us of an occupation — where I believe this was strictly a humanitarian action by the United States military, and an incredible one – I’m a little sympathetic. Because every day, this elected leader is called a dictator here, and we just accept it! And accept it. And this is mainstream media, who should – truly, there should be a bar by which one goes to prison for these kinds of lies.

Sean Penn is a talented actor, and should stick to acting. Every time he makes a political statement, he sounds like a total moron. Too many drugs in the Ridgemont High days, I guess.

There are a few celebrities who actually can be rational when they talk politics, but he is not one of them. And I mean both celebs who I agree with and those who I disagree with. When they take the time to put thought and study behind their statements, I can respect that.

Penn, however, is just a blathering twit who barely makes sense, much less putting forth a cogent argument for his views.
Build a man a fire, he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, he's warm for the rest of his life.
