Promise and Potential are very fickle.
Sometimes I think the news media has a big part to play for every flaw in American history, be it in Vietnam, Rwanda, Somalia, or Iraq.

Excerpt from Lions For Lambs,
argument between two TV journalists:
Janine Roth (character played by Meryl Streep);

"If we don't do this Howard, who is going to do it? This IS the job. This politician, this journalist, everybody that says, "Oh well, if only we'd known then what we know now." It's bullshit, it's bullshit. It was all right there, we knew it. If we had bothered to connect the dots. But we didn't, did we? We just roll over."

Quite true, don't you think?

In other matters, I'm going to be at the max pavilion at 8pm. Yeah I'm attending MCR's concert, don't judge me! I've got tickets for onlyyy $25 you see. Plus Gerard's cute, in a dark-and-broody-but-sexy-and-vampire-rish sort of way.
