Quote for the Day II

"There are those in our own country too who today speak of the 'protection of country' - of 'survival.' A decision must be made in the life of every nation at the very moment when the grasp of the enemy is at its throat. Then it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy, to rest survival upon what is expedient - to look the other way.

Well, the answer to that is survivalas what? A country isn't a rock. It's not an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for. It's what it stands for when standing for something is the most difficult!

Before the people of the world, let it now be noted that here, in our decision, this is what we stand for: justice, truth, and the value of a single human being," - Judge Haywood, in the 1961 movie, "Judgment at Nuremberg."

Notice the silence today on the right-wing blogosphere. I wish it were a function of shame.
