1984 revisited
At any point in time are we going to just want to be okay with the truths of war and 9-11? I can't speak for everyone, but I know I'm kinda feed up with all the touchy touchy feel good, don't say anything wrong kinda stuff.

I know...it's a horrific picture. But it too is the reality of what's going on over there. Just take a minute to look at the two different media sources. Something is very off when it comes to what we are allowed to see and what remains hidden.
