"It is during our most challenging and uncertain moments that our Nation's commitment to due process is most severely tested; and it is in those times that we must preserve our commitment at home to the principles for which we fight abroad." Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, Hamdi v. Rumsfeld - 2004

The Snake surfaces, James Carville
I don't know where I heard that James Carville spiked the Kerry campaign in the final hours. I'm sure he's loyal to the Clintons, and I find his "branding" of Bill Richardson fully revealing of dirty, nasty, and racial, Clintonian tactics. If you're not tightly in the Clinton power fold, or have enough power on your own (e.g. former Senators that support Obama) then you better shut-up and get in line. Otherwise, you'll be called Judas on national television.

Feeling Rome
Can this describe the gap between rich and poor any clearer? As middle and lower income people lose their homes all over the U.S., elites are paying MORE for summer rentals in Malibu. Ick.

1,000 reasons to love life
Thanks Vigilante and Stella for wanting to share in our precious baby!
My children remind me that every human life is precious. Babies make me wonder why, why, why we pollute the environment, hate other people, and commit violent acts. I wish baby-love would guide our world toward the light!

Insane Nation
I've been out of the loop for three weeks, mostly taking care of our newborn and a very manic toddler.
I am just amazed at how insane so many Americans are, here's a short list:
Geraldine Ferraro/Hillary Clinton (can she please stop wining in public and get back to sipping her mint julep at the plantation?)
Dr. Laura (why do we let this woman on TV?)
Eliot Spitzer (did he think he had anonymity?)
McCain's new "spiritual advisor" (I can't get the TPM link to work)
