For a kid, you seen somehow older and wiser today. A new level of maturity.

That same thing has gone on for so long. The wrong people are too often recognized as "leaders" and are pleased to have the ability to start wars.

I remember talking with Rubin years ago. Mandela and he were meeting to try to find a way to stop Bush from lighting the Middle East on fire. Rubin had met W when he was governor of Texas. They discussed the death penalty. Rubin asked if I knew what the "W." stood for? "Death!" he said before I could answer. "George Death Bush! He was giddy at the thought of killing people!"
