Josh Marshall's Talking Points Memo has a letter from a career diplomat laying out the options we may face in Iraq, it's scary as hell, but the guy seems to know what he's talking about. So I demand you read!
In other news, a conversation at work:
Me: Hey, a couple of my friends were on the news yesterday at the anti-war rally?
Robert: Were they naked?
Me: Um, no. It was cold!
Robert: Hey, what's a little chilling compared to peace? If you want me to pay attention, I expect some nudity! Take that however you like...Update: Bushes against Bush.
You guys wrote a lot this weekend (as most of you know, I rarely blog during the weekend). I think I'll just let everything stand on it's own, unless someone wants a response.
As those of you who didn't attend the protest/rally, you can probably tell from reading the comments of the first-timers here that it was a significant event for them personally, beyond the larger body politic. You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one. Of course there is a danger in going too far with that aspect towards the point where these things can be characterized by the right as an "Ego-fest" of sorts. While those of us actually participating know this is not the case, most comments following such things tend to focus on the personal, leading to the mischaracterizations. That said, Violet's make up work was really good. I believe she was photographed 8 times.
