Did I say anti-republican? I certainly didn't mean to, I was thinking more anti-democrat. In the council war books, it's not that big, mostly a huge and pointless rant about how global warming is complete nonsense created by enviromentalists to take away corporations God given right to make money, and if we ignore it, it'll go away. In fact, the heroes solution to alot of problems seems to be ignore it, it'll go away. Humanity breeding itself to extiction through laziness and widespread genetic manipulation? Eh, it'll fix itself if we ignore it!
My main problem with the 'heroes' in the series really came to a head in the third book, when, after spending all this time patting themselves on the backs for treating the Changed as humans, unlike thier enemies, they slaughter and EAT a strike force of Changed, and then make jokes about it. I was also bothered how humanity went from basically no government to Feudal Serfdom in like, a week. And finally while the 'villian' is indeed doing horrible things, he's doing them out of a genuine desire to save humanity from becoming extinct. Granted, some of his actions and most of his allies are questionable, but I think it's entirely possible that the good guys might actually be fighting for the wrong side in this. The fact that Bun-Bun is helping them may be a clue.
Also, I was thinking that the book 'A State of Disobedience', in which the Democrat's gain control of congress and immediatly begin thier traditional child burning and priest killing activites, was written by John Ringo. It's actually written by Tom Kratman, with a small blurb on the cover by Ringo.
Also Also, for some reason, I really hate Bast.--
Comb your hair, damn anime hippies.

If you become a monster to put down a monster you've still got a monster running around at the end of the day and have as such not really solved the whole monster problem at all.
