well i for one am elated moussaoui didn't get death. i was disturbed death was even on the table. dare i say this gives me hope for humanity? no, i think that would be premature.

who cares if the national anthem is sung in spanish? not me! (of course, i don't care if it's sung at all!)

i think i heard on the radio yesterday that the border issue is upsetting for some because all those incoming mexicans will undermine american values, the american way of life. i say go ahead! undermine! surely some aspects of mexican culture are infinitely preferrable to that of the united states. (not all, perhaps, but some.) this border stuff is largely beyond me.

anyway. hot topics.

to recap: you're ambivalent and/or actively dislike the national anthem and american culture - and feel happy for a man partially responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent people - and yet you surprisingly feel out of place in blue-collar Tacoma.

smooooooth return, blue.

yes, i'm with you... the fact that the death penalty was even on the table moussaoui bothered me. turning him into a martyr would have been counter-productive.

of course, i'm the liberal sort who doesn't believe the death penalty should ever be used.
