George Orwell "1984" had it right. Let's forgive a seer a couple of decades. Perhaps he only saw the beginning of it. It is here now. Just like Winston Smith we have to deal with it. Maybe if we each learn to face our greatest fear and not tell it to another we can overcome Room 101.

In any case, I cannot fathom either how a sitting President can ignore a direct threat (North Korea) for an obscure one (Iraq).

Why does every word out of Rumsfeld's mouth sound like McNamara? Deja vue (
For the casual reader who doesn't understand what I just said, here it is plain and simple.

Read your history.
Learn to not take every word off of the news networks at face value.
Listen to your elders who have experienced life.
Do not underestimate your own common sense about right and wrong.
Listen to your own soul.
Most of all, be ready to die before accepting chains.
