Well said, yet again. As Yeats once said, "The best lack all conviction while the worst are full/of passionate intensity." Ugh!

My only refuge in these dark, appalling days is Gandhi's repeated assurance that even when evil, lies, fraud, and hypocrisy seem triumphant, Truth is ultimately indestructible. Or as Bob Marley once sang, "The truth is an offense/But not a sin."

Keep speaking truth, no matter what happens...
