Guess the only way our president can make the Iraq fiasco look better is to make an even bigger blunder. So many die so needlessly. I went to hear Franz Wright read about a week ago and someone asked him if the current evil in the world (particularly our leader) is something that he feels the need to write about. He says that there has always been such evil, all throughout history, that nothing really changes. What a completely depressing thought–that we can’t advance or evolve past our baser instincts. It troubles me greatly that he may be right.

Thanks for your informative insightful blog today.

Best, Lana
