and because I cannot do everything,
I will not refuse to do something that I can do. edward everett hale

Doom to you who legislate evil, who make laws that make victims -- laws that make misery for the poor, that rob my destitute people of dignity, exploiting defenseless widows, taking advantage of homeless children. What will you have to say on Judgment Day, when Doomsday arrives out of the blue? Who will you get to help you? What good will your money do you? (Isaiah 10:1-3, The Message)

There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad w/radiance. william sharp

I think no matter how old or infirm I may become, I will always plant a large garden in the spring. Who can resist the feelings of hope and joy that one gets from participating in nature's rebirth? edward giobbi

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. marcel proust

I am only one, but still I am one.I cannot do everything,but still I can do something;and because I cannot do everything,I will not refuse to do something that I can do. edward everett hale

thinking about

memo about Geneva Convention, signed by Gonzales: The memo recommended that the president should not apply Geneva noting that the war against terrorism was a new kind of war. "This paradigm renders obselete Geneva's strict limitations on questioning of enemy prisoners and renders quaint some of its provisions." (reaping what we sow?)

lawyer Feith in 1985: "those who didn't follow rules should not be able to take refuge in the convention"

gone was the Common Article 3--check it out

If wrong is wrong, when isn't it really wrong? When a lawyer is in charge?
