I couldn't be in politics. I don't have the thick skin for it. It's a little wimpy but I can't even read that Seymour Hersch New Yorker piece without crying. It's a long article, but here's what got me in the solar plexus:
A government consultant with close ties to the civilian leadership in the Pentagon said that Bush was "absolutely convinced that Iran is going to get the bomb" if it is not stopped. He said that the President believes that he must do "what no Democrat or Republican, if elected in the future, would have the courage to do," and "that saving Iran is going to be his legacy."

And that's just for starters. We know Bush is a stooge, but he has a messianic vision and that vision makes him extremely dangerous.

I'd end up screaming "You're all a bunch of assholes" about six times a day.

Here we go again, "We're going to bomb you into peace and democracy!", and with tactical nukes no less. How do you talk about non-proliferation in one breath and tactical nukes in the next?

It wasn't long after 9/11, September 11, 2001, that I began this website. I felt compelled to connect with other people around the globe. I had recently heard about "weblogs" or "blogs" and I dove right into Blogger.com. I searched for others to connect with online and I found Ageless. It led to meeting many great friends to discuss events of the day. From then on it snowballed. Most importantly we offered one another support and friendship across the globe; finding that we were just a few keystrokes away.
