Should I interpret the old saying 'love thy enemy' (pardon me if I've muffed it, but that's the gyst) to mean love Iraqis, for whom I have no animosity, or love George Bush and his posse?
I'm not the forgiving type. We thought 9/11 was bad, but people pulled together, and recognized it as an atrocity. I am waiting for the police, the National Guard, the Crossing Guards, for crissake, to come protect us from our government.
Three years during which our country gained nothing, and many, many people lost everything.
I have this image of every blog I visit replacing its text with Stop the War for a day -- like December's Day Without Art. If we can organize ourselves for a birthday, surely we could for a political statement. Wouldn't it be amazing?
A hopelessly feminist intellectual blogs about kids, books, celebrities, knitting, politics, pop culture, the Red Sox, and whatever else strikes her fancy.
