I'd been getting worried because we hadn't heard from her in over a month. Things don't look good there at all.

3. Stunning.

I haven't been there for a couple months. Her last paragraph made me cry. What a beautiful human being in a tragic situation. I wish more Americans had that kind of depth of soul, but sadly, it is very hard to find, even in my close friends. I really don't know what else to say after reading that.

5. Thanks! She should be required reading for all americans

so we can understand the flip side of this war -- decent Iraqi's who just want to live their lives and are not politically motivated/biased. They just want electricity and water and schools and jobs!

6. "Three years ago Iraq was not a threat to the U.S. Now it is."

A line for Kerry. with thanks to Riverbend.
