The Self Defeating War -- Bush, an American Nero
George Soros wrote perhaps the most succinct assessment of the worst policy since Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD):
http://news.yahoo.com/s/huffpost/20060930/cm_huffpost/030591
At least the proposition of MAD was that insanity could be a deterrent. The Bush/Rice/Rumsfield "war on terror" is all incompassing foreign/domestic policy that seems to have blinded the current administration to the inevitable conclusion of our present course, which is no less than the destruction of our Republic. Our future is burning as never before, and History will judge whether our Democracy prevails or we have doomed ourselves to repeat failures of past Empires by ignoring its lessons.

Why Terri Schiavo Matters
Bloomberg.com: Top Worldwide
At 25, Terri became incacpacitated after less than 5 years of marriage. The 15 years since has brought her husband another woman and children, and he should not have rights to make life or death decisions on her behalf. We will be judged as a civilsation by how we treat severely disabled and aged. There are thousands of like this poor woman. A system that says mercy killing is illegal but allows state sponsored death by starvation is a monstrous horror.
