G'day all - JHP sez, "... Try reading "Bury my Heart At wounded KNEE"... "
Yes, to prefix this quote, "I will not be here, I will rise and go..."
It is interesting surrounding the so-called BIG THING, while the media have kept hyping every minute detail, the poll keeps telling the media to go away. Personally, I find it all too [absurdly] amusing, how one man vendetta of another man's humanistic shortcoming can preoccupy the center stage for so long while the foreigners, including a lot of asians - I would venture to guess - are befuddled by the sound and the fury of this issue while the world's economies are teetering, fundamentalists of the worst kind run amuck, and certainly many 3rd world countries are harboring destructive ambition of the nuclear and biochemical kinds.
As a cyberfriend in another part of the net I frequent marveled: this Prez has not traded arms with an avowed enemy and he has not harboured dictators who were instrumental of flooding the street with crack etc. While I love this good old US of A, it seems that people don't meditate enough on Nick Adams [alter ego of Ernie Hemingway] and want to play moralist.
