A short post from ruby

I still don't know what all the fuss is about at this time of year!

That's another one in the bag!

Yes, Christmas is over for another year. The presents have been given, and received. Families have gotten together and shared the love. and the war rages on. Fear not the assault on Christmas... but do fear the assault on sensibility. Good luck... and good night!

Once you do a thing... it becomes easy to repeat it

Can you believe that we have arrived at a place where American’s are advocating the use of torture by interrogators to get information out of prisoners? We should all be clear that no matter what their political grouping, or philosophical beliefs they are Americans. John McCain has had experience on one side of the experience, but what about the other side? Doesn’t the act of torturing a fellow human being take something valuable away from the torturer? Won’t the world think less of America (if that is possible) if we begin to do things that we have said we would stand against? These are questions we must ask before we allow this type of thing to go on. Before we allow the still yet to be realised dream of building a better society for all Americans to die, we had better be damn sure that the world that will follow the death of that goal is one we would want to live in.
