Mourning the Morning
Some mornings are, well, not the sort that make you happy that you got out of bed. This morning, I’d expected to see the vote on Dr. Rice’s confirmation and to finish a post covering the grandstanding, or debate in Senate speak, which lasted 10 hours. It will come, but first news of the helicopter crash that killed 31 Marines, and of the train crash in LA where apparently someone purposefully parked an SUV, of course, on the tracks. This led to the derailment of a commuter train and the death of 10 people.
In choosing to comment on the news and politics, it doesn’t take long to realize that much of what will be discussed is negative, often tragic, and only rarely positive. There is good news, I’m sure.
