Happy New Year: The Year of the Citizen
I want to wish all my readers a happy, healthy and productive year in 2006. I hope we will work together to bring real, positive change to America and to our nation's role in the world.
There is much to be done, but it will be rewarding work. Two inspiring quotes come to mind:
Margaret Mead:
John Kerry:
Let's make 2006 the Year of the Citizen.
Updated to add: we can take back our government this year, we can make significant strides in taking back the media, and we can start to revitalize the notion of citizenship in this country.
It's on us to make it happen.

John Kerry:
There is no more important word in the American language, other than love, than citizen.
