A first step would be for the Vietnam generation - my generation, not by any means the greatest, but surely the largest generation - to stop doing something we always accused our own parents of doing. Let's stop fighting all the old political wars.
Let's admit, courageously and candidly, that our unbending moral libertarianism has really messed this country up. It's a valid gripe that the so-called "Arab street" has about us.
(Carl Raschke, via Milt's File.)
