Required: A revolution of the viscera -- down deep to the heart and the guts such as continued to morph in me, yesterday, as I read Joe Sacco's "Footnotes in Gaza", which drove home viscerally how superficial the daily body count seems when the deep psychic scars of brutalized individual Palestinians are fleshed out by Sacco's brilliant drawings/prose. Makes one more fully appreciate how deeply criminal is one's own government in facilitating such prolonged and ongoing misery. To then be concerned about D or R, especially when they so freely trade war mongers like over-the-hill athletes becomes a ludicrous waste of energy. Reflecting the society at-large, the US government is corrupt at its core-value level and ain't no vote for no savior gonna change that nohow.
