My daughter had to read a story for her English class this weekend titled The Devil and Mr. Walker - it has an amazing tie to the events of today with greed and the work of the devil. I am not a very religious person but I feel there is definitely an evil force at work here. Every generation has a moment in time when they have an opportunity to take a stand. Some do and become community workers, or politicians, or peace corp volunteers, others turn their heads and go about their business.

Not everyone will take a stand, and that may be alright as long as the don't do not out number the do's. Right now may be our moment. If this evil is allowed to stand, if it is seen as 'just politics' by enough people then our moment will pass by and we will be faced with consequences no one wants to live through.

It has actually been building for the better part of a decade. It started with the 'us v them' mentality of the current administration. We are constantly told that the soldiers in Iraq are fighting for 'our freedoms' while those same freedoms are being eroded. We are told about 'freedom of speech' but it only applies if you agree with the conservatives.

It is time to get past that mentality, and we can start by not electing the McCain/Palin ticket that is promoting that evil hatred.

Its the foaming at the mouth part - makes enunciation difficult. Or is it foaming at the keyboard? Is there an analogy that works with message boards?
