Yesterdays' quotes ...


... War Crimes are heinous and intolerable acts that all decent people reject; "anyone suspected of war crimes should be thoroughly investigated"; and War Criminals must not be allowed in any positions of authority . . . . except when the War Crimes in question are committed by Americans, in which case all investigations and accountability must be blocked and those who defended and even approved them are perfectly welcomed in our highest positions of authority ... -- Our political class in a nutshell by Glenn Greenwald, salon.com

Today, we [California] are captive to the monster that the vindictive and harsh policies which do nothing to rehabilitate prisoners have wrought, guaranteeing that we will continue to spend more money to keep someone in prison than we do to put them in good schools. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. -- California's budget problems by Mary, The Left Coaster
