She says this on a different episode of politically incorrect. It's all kind of interesting. I'm not sure how to interpret it though.
Rachael: Does anyone else think that 16 is too young to be driving? Rachael: These kids? I was born a good year outside of the Reagan administration, I'll have you know. It's not fair. Do not generalize us that way. Is anyone with me? Rachael: I have a problem with people generalizing everyone of one generation to be, you know, of a certain set of beliefs, moral, ethics, whatnot. You know, I think that's a form of discrimination. |

trowa_zero if I may ask. Where are you getting these quotes? If some site has the RLC transcripts, can you post the link?

It's uncanny how people never look to this website for information. I guess they assume its only a message board.
Politically Incorrect - Jan. 2001 There are tons of articles, interviews, and transcripts in the News Stand section of the site. |

The second post with quotes in it is from an transcript of rozalia's page.
http://rozalia.hal-9000.net/incorrect/ Here's another http://abc.abcnews.go.com/primetime/politicallyincorrect/episodes/2001-02/614.html A little about women's rights, role models, etc from Rachael: Bryan: That's right. Let's ask Little Richard's mom. I mean, there probably still is that ceiling for women to achieve those goals and those anchor positions. Just like there isn't any woman in a position to take over for Leno or Letterman or any of those people. Lauren: It's what we're used to. We're a creature of habit. We like those men being in those roles. Bill: But women, too. I'm saying there's no doubt there is a ceiling. Rachael: We can change. Bill: We can what? Rachael: We can make a change. If you get the American public used to a female nightly news anchor, and then we'll get used to it. Hehe, and another. http://abc.abcnews.go.com/primetime/politicallyincorrect/episodes/2001-02/424.html Here she says that inprisonment doesn't work as an effective drug policy, kinda. Sanho: Bob, we have 2 million people behind bars in this country. There are only 8 million prisoners in the entire world, so a quarter of our 2 million people are there for nonviolent drug offenses. That's more people behind bars than the entire European Union locked up for all offenses, and they have 100 million more citizens than we do. Are Americans that much more evil than people in the rest of the world, or do we have a screwed up criminal justice system? Rachael: That's what I was gonna say. And this is just kind of funny. Rachael: That's real. I mean, my vice is refined sugar. Bill: Your vice, yes. Because it give you energy? Rachael: No, I just really like it.

Here's my rant on North Korea.
Going after N Korea after Iraq is a huge mistake. Making clear order in which we will deal with crisis is really dumb. It makes it clear when the heat will come down on N Korea. If N Korea thinks it has a better chance to attack while the US is concetrating some where else they might take that opportunity. Even if the US could do "grievious damage" to Korea with it's current deployments, N Korean leaders may miscalculation this risk since it seems that all our forces are concentrated on Iraq, it would seem a better choice for them to attack now. I feel that waiting for N Korea to fall apart on it's own is not a wise option. N Korea is prepared for war and willing to first strike. They have enough nuclear material I think I've heard to make 5 nuclear bombs more and is suspected of already having a few. The US sure couldn't stop India and Pakistan from going nuclear, so I think it's very possible. If we act if we are prepared to go after either at any time or we make some kind of compromise with N Korea now, that would be better. Although that compromise solution doesn't seem likely. The US doesn't like compromising with "terrorists" especially the conservative elements, and in my mind especially presidents who refer to N Korea as part of an "axis of evil" who when confronted with choices have always gone back to supporting his conservative base. Here are quotes from a BBC interview with North Korea's Foreign Ministry deputy director, Ri Pyong-gap. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/2732071.stm Mr Ri: The responses for this are very clear. If the United States steps their boots over the borderline, we'll take strong countermeasures. A pre-emptive attack is not something only the United States can do. We can also do that, when it is a matter of life or death. BBC: You would even consider launching a pre-emptive strike against American forces? Mr Ri: "We are fully ready to have a conversation with the United States - at the same time, we are fully ready to have war with the United States. Other quotes http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/2340405.stm If the North Koreans are telling the truth, it means that a controversial nuclear reactor at Yongbyon is now capable of producing materials for nuclear weapons. Whether North Korea actually does so may depend on how the rest of the world, especially the US, reacts. Either way, Asia is a less safe place. North Korea is believed to have a few nuclear weapons already, as well as missiles capable of striking Japan. [This message was edited by trowa_zero on February 06, 2003 at 09:14 PM.] |
