it was after labor day 2004, that the presidential campaign began in ernest. people tuned in to hear the candidates espouse their positions on north korea, iraq, climate change, nuclear proliferation, and other global issues. now, a year later, we have the same tired president of five years ago.
i wonder if history will look back on this era and highlight the major foci of this generation. first we had 9/11, followed by the iraq occupation, followed by abu ghraib, and today katrina. this is my country’s legacy and heritage that will most likely outlive us all.
