Your message is deeply concerning to the children of this World. Firstly, we live in a democracy and I haven’t been rude to anyone. Secondly, many political experts, politicians and academics share these views. The World is not just the Western opinion.

Most importantly the doomsday clock is 90 seconds to midnight, so having some dialogue and respect between nations is not a bad idea, otherwise we sleep walk into WW3.

Peace X.
You're correct. Putin is insane, but the West have isolated and intimidated Russia via NATO expansion. It's a complex situation that requires ongoing dialogue. Labelling people left, right, up, down, etc. is the best way to perpetuate the us and them mindset that social media has sent nuclear.

Why have countries felt the need to join NATO? It’s very simple really.

Appropriately enough, or inappropriately, shown on TV this week, the film In The Line Of Fire (the Clint Eastwood one) has a moment in common with the song. One of the characters says he doesn't want to ever get to close (on a personal level) to any Presidents, lest he find out he didn't consider them worth risking his life for, which is essentially the same dilemma as our narrator in the song.

Wonder what the Kid Rock / PSB fan Venn diagram looks like?

Actually, I’d probably rather not know….

Was this on your bingo card today? Good ol' Narcissus shooting his mouth off in tonight's presidential debate ("THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS!") causes this tweet from Flavor Flav:
Pet Shop Boys better stay inside and lock the doors. You too Snoop Dogg. And Pitbull.

Remember...

A dog isn't just for Christmas.
With any luck there'll be some left over for Boxing day.
