The Speech

Okay.

Okay.

Alright.

If anyone happens to read this post, you've got to see/read the speech Obama gave today about race. Whether you're a Republican, Libertarian, Greenian, Democrat, or Vanilla Swirl. Take the armor off for a minute and just read/watch the speech.

That's all I have to say.

Except one more thing: I'm not much of a patriot. I think patriotism is more or less "the belief that one country is better than others because you are in it." I think it's one step away from nationalism, and nationalism is how ALL of the big wars get started. I think if we actually want God to bless America more than we want him to bless Iran, we're just wrong, and we're the Romans.

But I love my country, like I love my extended family. And today, I have more hope for her.
