September 01 WINSTON GEORGE TANNIS ON TED KENNEDY DEATHAnd so death arrives, and one prays for conscience as
T. Kennedy did with the Catholic Pope Benedict. We live in
interesting yet sad yet hopeful times, as we try to curl
back the corrupt curtain of our own continent for those
who have sacrificed and lived for it and through it. Ours
cannot be the way of excess pragmatism but dignified
and restrained pragmatism, of a kind that true politicians
should aspire to. Perhaps it is the legacy of Kennedy that
he tried, in some measure, to meet such ideals. When one
is bound, one is restrained and these are the dirty deeds
of government so long as our literatures are not properly
preserved and read. Towards a greater 'perfection' we
strive as a continent, as a world of states and non state
agents. TrackbacksThe trackback URL for this entry is: http://winstontannistm.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!8013AC70825CD0BA!1090.trak Weblogs that reference this entry
