Democratic Contenders: The best political talent in years

Democrats should be proud. Indeed, America should be proud.
And why stop there... The world should be proud.

America is blessed by getting to choose among so many good and great men, as well as the radiant Moseley-Braun. The question is: How do you choose?

But let me first jump to another point, and that is: What will become of the losers?

I say let them all agree that all will be included within whatever administration might save America and the world from poor Mr. Bush's sad rapine and pillaging of America and the world's treasures. As General Clark aptly said: We should be buying oil on the world market. He didn't go on say "instead of steal it." He is a gentleman as well as a general. Gentlemen do not steal. It is in bad form. Impolite. Inelegant.

But we are promoting stealers. Not only stealers, but stealers who will allow even Americans to die for their plunder. At least it seems this way to me. Halliburton is worse than a plantation. A soldiers pay is a slap in the face, already sunworn and bloodied by war.

We want to protect and preserve life. Not hurl lives into the flames. Every body is a temple, cradling a soul. Not empty shells. Say no to empty shells. In every stripe.

Long live souls and temples.
