I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

What Jim Said

It's come up on other blogs about my feeling concerning the current occupant of the Oval Office and his administration. Many people have doubted my convictions abotu the issues and what I am really willing to do because they have never met someone (at least of my political persuasion) that has both the depth of my feelings about the issues and a willingness to lose everything to maintain what is necessary. When I talk with other vetrans (of whom I always feel like a poser around given my degree of service), I find that while we may disagree about issues, we have that depth of feeling and that willingness.

Well, I've found at least one other comrade-in-arms, Jim Wright. He outlines his position here, in a post called This I Believe. What he said.
