I designed this for the Lake City local artists exhibit. I have unsubmitted the work to avoid controversy. It's a shame. Helen Dewey, who is putting the show together, said it was the best thing I'd ever done. I just know it would upset a lot of people in this tiny mountain town; people I have to live with and work with. People who believe they must support the troops, support the president, support the war. We must kick rag-head ass because of 9/11.
God! It is a tragedy what we have become in this country. We are all little Eichmanns now, shouting down the voices of dissent. At work I mentioned my dismay at Wolfowitz being appointed head of the World Bank. A person I worked with displayed the typical American disdain for dissent: "I don't even know who that is, I don't care!"
I am ignorant. I am apathetic. I am proud. I am an American.
