DUer Ava wins BuzzFlash "Wings of Justice" award ......

Ava Lowery is only 15 years old, but wiser than many politicians and reporters four times her age.

The young Alabaman started a website called "Peace Takes Courage," and populated it with arresting Internet flash presentations and news. Many Internet activists have seen Ava's emotionally wrenching presentation of "Jesus Loves Me" that so movingly depicts the horror inflicted upon children by Bush's Iraq War.

Although many Democratic leaders back down when confronted with hostile questions from the press, Ava has held her own and shown that a backbone comes with character, not age.

As one BuzzFlash reader noted of her appearance on CNN: "Ava was beautiful and gracious and stuck to her talking points. Her poise was remarkable. Folks, this is our future. The right would have us believe that tomorrow holds nothing but darkness for us. But it's just not true. We can move America forward, no matter how small we may feel in the big scheme of things. Ava is a testament to the human spirit, an example of hope for all of us.".......
