Paul Wellstone memorials

I've been watching what I could of the Paul Wellstone memorials online. What a heartbreaking event. Of course the conspiracy theorist in me is a little suspicious. Maybe rightly so given the history of good people in this country.

I don’t what happened to me in the past decade but I went from being an active member of society and politics to a cranky apathetic hermit. There was a time when I thought I could be involved and do something to make the world a better place and now I feel like I’ve joined the running dogs. If I’m not part of the solution then perhaps I am part of the problem.
