The Crusader (An Interview with Scott)

Ridiculous developments. Hopefully Truman uses the good ol' veto stamp and the Assembly looks at things more thoroughly in the future (of course, I suppose passing crap bills is better than where it was--if only by a notch).

Greatest return-from-month-long-hiatus ever!

For the record I was offered the same option to strike North Korea and I said no multiple times (in which I was accused of "doing nothing about North Korea" by Barnes)

Ah yes, the Presidency. Whatever you do, someone thinks you're doing terrible.


Also I'll echo what Yankee said, it's ridiculous to judge fhtagn by other people's actions. Not to mention very unfair--I can't think of anyone else who is so unfairly tied to the actions of others, as if she can't think for herself.

Indeed, and if new info was to prove me wrong I would certainly have no issue with admitting it, I've been wrong in the past. All I know what I can see in public, and what I can see looks rather awful.

Isn't there an issue of information and transparency for the public anout foreign policy. The executive branch can receive classified information, GM could propose choices of action and the public doesn't know all. If an ordinary citizen is interested in foreign policy, it's not really possible to give an opinion or question a policy since there could always be a secret information or something the GM is simulating in private.

To completely follow foreign policy issues you need to be among the players with access to all information. Foreign policy is beign played in a private room at the back and the ordinary citizen is not invited.

Well that's realistic, no? Or did I miss the part where US top secret briefings are publicized?

[Leinad]

lol...slow news day?

Just chiming in to say that Yankee and dfw's accounts of the party's inner-workings are correct.

Lumine is clearly using sketchy sources, and it's kind of infuriating (but sensationalist to the point that it is kind of funny).
