Remembering John Lennon

25 years ago today John Lennon was shot to death, a watershed moment in my life, and a searing reminder today for "Give Peace a Chance" We have no spokesman for Peace today, only hatred spewing Pat Robertson and others who claim that Christmas itself, is under attack by the white house "happy holidays" card being branded indicative of banning "Merry Christmas". Crazy stuff, No? Yes, right-wing ideologues are indeed pissed off at the Bush Christmas card. While I and my guitar gently weep again, our children will be dying in foreign lands.
