The Unbearable Light Shed By A Mind Beseiged
Riverbend has given me an opportunity to link back to one of Tresy's more essential posts: Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind; click here to re-read it.
Tim Dunlop rightly calls it challenging, and warns that if you think it unAmerican, you are part of the problem.
There is no better evidence that both Tresy and Tim are right than the agonized cry from the heart this young Iraqi woman shows us in her latest post, dated today.
I can't bear to quote from it; just read it. And then think about it. Don't take easy vindication from it, either, just because you were against this war.
I'll have more to say about it on the weekend, I suppose; it deserves something more than easy reponses.
