We have serious issues to discuss. It's past time for a national reckoning, yet, unfortunately, contemplative, reasoned debate is not found on most network television or talk radio programs. Instead, we are subject to a cacophony of voices, sputtering diatribe and hyperbole with the main goal of being louder than the other. Is this how we are teaching our children to communicate? - Ms. Samm Simpson

I believe that when people hear the truth, great change is not only possible, it is inevitable. As we return to reasoned introspection - with a moral imperative - our collective social conscience will reject the fear, terror and imperialistic militarism that have reached its zenith in the Bush Administration. We the people can begin building a long-term process to heal our communities, our nation and our world. This will be a long-term struggle. It will require our collective sacrifice as we undo the debt, repair the destruction, demand accountability and, most importantly, seek the truth.
