Wow.

You go watch the CNN video at Rawstory of the kids who gave Bush a letter asking him to stop torturing detainees. You go watch it. And if you're not in tears by the end, and if you don't feel some renewed hope for our country -- along with a terrible grief that these young people have so much more courage than so many adults -- well, then you and I are different.

I especially love the young woman who responds to the talking hairdo anchor who asks about their courage in making "such a controversial point" to the emperor. She tosses it right back at him, "human dignity isn't controversial." Dems, take note. That is how it's done.

PS. Man, you know it just torqued the boyking's intestines into a stone to have to come into contact with honest-to-god smart kids (the kind that he always hated) who weren't pre-screened by Rove to include only adoring fans. This is exactly why he tries so hard to appear only in "town hall" meetings full of the Republican faithful. Has anyone seen Barney in the last few days?
