Viewing Earth from the perspective of a tiny fragile globe hurling through space humbles and inspires all at once - but makes flag waving and joining in difficult. And so from age 10 on things got difficult. I mean if you're paying attention, even just a little, how can you not be angry? But how also can you not be inspired and awed. And so I write.

Rand Paul the Jerk
Rand Paul, Kentucky's Republican Senate nominee, says Obama's criticism of how BP has handled the oil spill is un-American. Being tough on and holding BRITISH petroleum accountable for the worst environmental disaster in history is somehow un-American. BP is a multinational corporation with allegiance to no one country. Their recklessness and lies immediately following this disaster have clearly made it much worse than it already was - and they are still lying. They have a long documented history of lying about safety and the severity of the environmental impact of previous disasters. Their handling of this disaster will reveal itself to involve criminal negligence. They have impeded the capping and the clean up effort by having misrepresented the severity of leak - not just in the first few days but for weeks after-wards. When the full extent of this disaster is finally is realized - watch this rat Paul squeak and squeal in his enthusiastic indictment of BP. Un-American? Hell BP is un-World. What timing - what a jerk.
