A sad day for earth,......

Indeed, Moss and I are devestated, mortified, and in shock. I cried today. Cried for our soliders that died, for those that will die, for the innocent Iraqis and all the other nations our insane president will declare war on. I cried for mother earth too, all the beautiful wild animals that share this land with us, some on the verge of extinction whose existence will now be even more precarious. I thought of my beloved ancient forests in the Pacific northwest, the tall old growth trees, the strong flowing streams, some still containing salmon.



I thought of our rights as citizens, how imortant is our constitution and civil liberties, all threatened now. A womans right to chose,freeom of religion, the rights of some folks to marry and the war that will be waged on this countries poor and middle class. We can kiss it all goodbye,thanks to the re election of George W Bush.



Needless to say, we did not acomplish much today.........
