When I began this blog in 2001, I was appalled by President Bush's headlong rush to an illegal war (we were not in fact under attack). As time wore on and Bush began his assault on the Constitution and any people bold enough to criticize, I believed that "the republic is endangered more by actions of our own government than by those of any terrorist." With the election of a high-minded, compassionate, intelligent man like Barack Obama, my fears have ceased.

Though one may conquer
a thousand times a thousand men in battle,
yet he indeed is the noblest victor
who conquers himself.

Words for Bush
Though one may conquer
a thousand times a thousand men in battle,
yet he indeed is the noblest victor
