Personal Statement

Never has one country with so much potential for good, done so little with it.  I am worn out by, greed, lies, deception, fear, suspicion, killing, polarization.  Is there really a debate in 2007 in the USA over what types of torture are OK?  We are far better than this.  In 2003 a Republican friend said to me, "I want my party back."  For me, it was too late. I had already registerd as an "undeclared" in NH.  Life in the 'post 9/11 world' is no different.  There have always been dangers and threats.  It is America that has changed.  Pre 9/11 we were safe, free, proud, respected, happy, prosperous, at peace; we also used to be the example of hope, trust, justice, law, fairness.  Things were not perfect, we were not perfect; but as nations go, we were the bedrock.  I want this back.  I want goodness and truth.  I want my country back.
