(Community Matters)
It’s been great fun so far. Outstanding speakers and bands. New Mexico Gov Bill Richardson talked about the only change McCain stands for is changing his mind: immigration, torture, tax cuts, tax deficits, far right fundamentalism. In between sessions, I read Maureen Dowd’s column from yesterday; I usually enjoy her, can even see the shock and sensationalism she went for, but Maureen must have searched hard for her examples of lingering resentment and hate. The real example is the Texas Delegation. The loyal Hillary delegate who reached out to Ian Davis and offered to help anyway she can after Hillary’s great Tues speech. Perhaps the pundits need to stir up what’s not there to sell their ink. But they do so misleadingly. Feelings are of unity and reclaiming this country to stand for good, compasion, opportunity and strength. posted from my blackberry
