If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad; if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." - John F. Kennedy

Haiti In Shambles
Haiti is in ruin after a 7.0 earthquake centered near Port-au-Prince. A great deal of the capital city is destroyed and probably thousands are dead. U.N. headquarters is said to be destroyed as is the Presidential Palace. The pictures coming out of one of the poorest countries in the world are devastating. Enigma4ever at Watergatesummer has done a yeoman's job of gathering reports, pictures and links. I can imagine the ultimate death toll is going to be horrific.
