Breach the Divide

A high school friend of mine who is a career army officer and currently stationed overseas wrote something earlier today that I thought was important to share. He lives in Tuscon. Congresswoman Giffords is his representative. He said anyone could repost, so I am reposting.

In our comment string, he added "I'm no 'peace-nik' hippie with unrealistic Utopian ideals, but this in-fighting is just sick." I'm glad he and I stayed friends; he's good people, even if we might disagree on some politics. It's this kind of reaching out that needs to happen on both/all sides of the political spectrum. Do unto others... it's such a simple lesson.

I have to hope something good can and will come out of this. I have to, because if I don't, I won't do well at all.
