The America I was born into. . . .

[shalanna]

The USA I was born into no longer exists. The freedoms of thought and speech and movement that my daddy fought for in WWII are in danger. I was pretty depressed when my country attacked a country that hadn't attacked us . . . and I'm even more sad today because my country (behind my back, against my wishes, against almost anyone's better judgment) is now going to lower itself to do what the people we call "bad guys" do, and will even call it "right." Here's blogger Glenn Greenwald's take on the Torture Compromise.

I don't think there should be a compromise. I hate to see people backing down from defending what they know is right. What's happening? It isn't good.

*sigh*
