I was at the rally in NYC on Saturday against the trials. Happy to see Brian Dennehy brave the downpour to read a letter from the parents of Daniel Pearl.

A Tale of Two Petitions by Bookworm Dickens. A wonderful post.
The former reads like a French ala carte menu and the latter is American – meat and potatoes. 150 years later … and only the “worst of times” rings true.

And the top group are the pigs that would want to make it so that the Hague could extradite American soldiers.

The world is an ironic place only in so much that it is power which decides justice and injustice.

You missed Adrien Brody who made a fool of himself attacking President Bush at an Oscar ceremony.

Ok…so I recognize Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese, Salmon Rushdie (interesting, that one) and Diane Von Furstenburg. That’s it – from the first list, anyway. Most of those names appear to be foreign in origin, and primarily French…I don’t know if that’s true or if it’s significant even if it is.

Of the second list, I recognize all but Davi…and I sort of recognize that one – but I do better on faces than names.

I _know_ that says something about me…but I’m not sure just exactly _what_.
