It seems like something should be said -
and nobody knows quite what to say.
For a time, we remembered that we cared for and respected each other, that we have strengths, even in the face of fear. There was a coming together.
We need to come together again, to defend ourselves against things like this. To defend our democracy, and our way of life.
And each other.
Vote for the Democrats in Nov. 2008.
Then keep demanding that they give us the change they promise.
Let our nation be once again renowned for welcoming the people of the world,
not with armor, but with open arms.
