What I’m Grateful For
23 Nov
My favorite columnist nails it perfectly:
This Thanksgiving, we have more to be genuinely grateful for than at any time in the past six years. A tentative return to “real” democracy. The desperate curse of corruption and misprision being lifted. Many of our nation’s most sneering demons—Pombo, Santorum, Hastert, Rumsfeld, the dogma of the Christian right—all gone, all like so many slowly fading nightmares. A Democrat-run Congress that might actually serve a comparatively humanitarian, progressive agenda not based in war and scandal and a violent, judgmental God. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
It’s Morning in America. Amen and pass the turkey.
