"What truly is logic? Who decides reason?"

While searching for solutions in Iraq, the time for name calling has past. You can't take exception to the work of 10 elder statemen and women and taunt them as "Surrender Monkeys." The election is past. This type of journalism is irresponsible and bad for the country. We need to give our all to find a solution. We remember seeing that sign in little shops that carry lots of glass knick-nacks. "You break it. You bought it." We have certainly broken Iraq. We should do our all to fix it back, not for the 3000 Americans who have died, not even for the 25,000 wounded Americans, but for the 650,000 dead Iraqis that have died as a result of our blundering into their lives with no plans for the future.

It is time to listen to reason and not to shout inflammatory rhetoric.

On a side note to Rachel and Carter, I saw the end of my book today. In just a few seconds I imagined it all. Of course. Now only the work of finishing.
