发帖数: 5546 | 2 Everything changes as time goes by. Dubya's "compassionate
conservatism" was a hybrid of fiscal liberal and social conservative,
which was in sync with Obama's reckless spending. It used to
be appealing and popular, now nobody embraces it at all.
Reagan's GOP was in that camp, too.
Non-religious Chinese tend to be fiscal conservative and
social liberal--not California DEM liberal. I find the current
GOP fit this profile better than both Obama and Reagan. |

发帖数: 5546 | 3 yep. Reagan was similar to Dubya in creating a big government,
even though he campaigned against it in talk. At least
current GOP abandons Dubya silently. There were many religious
nuts in Reagan's GOP, too. The religious branch of GOP is
especially less harmful considering the whole country is
turning less religious. The racism branch of GOP remains
the same, while anti-China stuff has come more and more
from DEM camp with unions behind. |

The Moral Decoding of 9-11

time I saw it on television. It was on every major network within minutes.
All the guilty parties were declared before any evidence was shown. The
first questions of any criminal investigation were erased. Who had the most

美国准总统川普（特朗普）决定任命女婿库什纳出任白宫高级顾问，美国法律界对这个
任命是否违反一项50年之久的联邦法律看法不一。
中央社报导，川普过渡团队认为，库什纳（Jared Kushner）任职白宫没有法律问题，
因为1967年通过的“反裙带关系法”不适用于总统幕僚。
川普团队的论据有两个，一是1993年获得法院意见认证的反裙带关系法条文解释，第二
是1978年另一项联邦法律的条款，该法允许总统任命雇用白宫幕僚的“不顾虑”法规。
不过，美联社周一采访的数位法学教授和伦理学家却不那么笃定。
为奥巴马总统政府处理伦理问题的律师艾森（Norman Eisen）认为，“法律条文含混不
清。”
圣路易华盛顿大学（Washington University）法学教授克拉克（Kathleen Clark）表
示，根据她对这条由詹森（Lyndon Johnson）总统签署的反裙带关系法的法规分析，这
的确适用于白宫。

发帖数: 70028 | 41 去年一次接受外交召见时，美国驻华大使洪博培(Jon Huntsman Jr.)跳上了他那辆坚固的“永久”牌自行车，骑到了外交部。
慌张的警卫让他把自行车停在了侧门，然后让他走进去。他们本以为这位美国驻华大使会坐着他那辆防弹的卡迪拉克座驾而来。
这种非正式的抵达在洪博培看来已经习以为常，尽管对于一个大使来说，这不免有些过于谦卑和不敬。这个会说一口流利汉语的前摩门教传教士是一位亿万富翁的儿子，他为自己设定的宏大目标是使得中美关系这对全球最重要的双边关系变得人性化。
自从2009年担任驻华大使这个美国最重要的外交职位以来，这位前犹他州州长就养成了挑战外交礼节的习惯。在向中国施展个人魅力的同时又令中国感到不安。洪博培也是共和党2012年总统候选人的可能人选。
在过去的一年，这位七个孩子的父亲已经好几次骑着自行车到外交部接受中国官员对美国对台军售等问题的斥责。洪博培过去在盐湖城生活的时候，也曾经把哈雷摩托车当成代步工具。
他那不寻常的做法恰好概括了美中之间日益共生但又冲突不断的复杂关系。而本周中国国家主席胡锦涛访美又将真实再现美中之间的这种关系。胡锦涛主席此次访美是自1997年以来中国国家元首对... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 39120 | 42 美国前总统雷根女儿派蒂?戴维斯（Patti Davis）曾在四十二岁时替花花公子杂志拍摄清凉封面照，引发话题，如今五十八岁的她再度全裸入镜，强调自己脖子以下全是浑然天成，展现自信的一面。
英国每日邮报报导，派蒂是雷根家族中的特例，她的想法自由开放，常与保守的雷根起突。她曾在十五岁染上毒瘾，直到廿多岁才戒毒。
派蒂戒毒后迷上健美，并立志向健美界大师丽莎里昂（Lisa Lyon）看齐。她与家人的关系在雷根罹患阿兹海默症后也逐渐好转，二○○四年曾在雷根葬礼中现身。
派蒂这次为More杂志拍摄裸照。她在访问中说：「我知道外界认为我是个叛逆的第一千金，即使当年上花花公子时，父亲已卸任，我还是饱受批评，但我不在乎。我拍裸照不是要惹父母生气，我是为了自己而做。」

川普自竞选以来一直争议不断，但是人气也居高不下。英国理论物理学家斯蒂芬·霍金在近日播出的电视节目中说，他对川普为何大受欢迎理解不能。而在此前，他还曾取笑过川普的智商。
（顺便提一句，多家媒体都曾报道称，霍金的智商高达160，是全球最聪明的人之一。）
小编并没有从靠谱的网站找到川普和希拉里的智商，但是这智商到底和入主白宫有没有关系呢？咱们不妨先来围观一下美国前总统们的智商。
据美国新闻网报道，数据显示，平均IQ是100，社区大学毕业生的IQ是118，而美国总统的IQ都高于这个数字。当然，其中有些总统的IQ更是达到或超过了130的天才水平。只有3%的美国人IQ超过130。总统IQ排名如下：
1. 约翰·昆西·亚当斯（John Quincy Adams）IQ:168.75
2. 托马斯·杰斐逊（Thomas Jefferson）IQ:153.75
3. 约翰·费茨杰拉德·肯尼迪（John F. Kennedy）IQ:150.65
4. 威廉·克林顿（Bill Clinton）IQ:148.8
5. 托马斯·威尔逊... 阅读全帖 |
