I have never blogged before. Today (2/24/08), I felt that this had to be the day. This "uplifting" story on my Charter home page (courtesy of CNN) filled my heart with warmth. Operation Baghdad Pups (http://baghdadpups.com/) has been saving abandoned puppies from the streets of this bewildered city. Many of the pups even make it back to the US, finding "citizenship" and a new, cozy home..., unlike the over 2 million displaced Iraqis we never hear about, or the 30,000 (as per the official number claimed by G.W. Bush; aren't I a patriotic American?) who found their final home prematurely in the warm Iraqi sand.
Are we completely going out of our mind? Have we lost the last residue of true compassion, humanity, mercy and good judgment? Or the Iraqis really don't deserve even as much of our compassion as their street dogs? To answer these questions, see the link to the news blip:http://www.wjla.com/news/stories/0208/496042_video.html?ref=newsstory
