Making an Invisible Minority Less Invisible
In the election we all witnessed ugliness on the part of the audiences of both Sarah Palin and John McCain. The news media did a great job of covering their speeches, but an uneven one of covering the hate bubbling over in those audiences. The media needs to be introspective on this subject.

1. It's not up to the media, solely, it's MORE our responsibility than theirs.
We need to recognize and speak up about the hate we harbor or experience amongst ourselves. Forget the media. The People MUST Speak for themselves.

2. It is through blogs
that we speak for ourselves.

3. Nothing is as valid as face-to-face peaceful witness to the Facts about Hate and
other Anti-Life forces like Ignorance and Fear.
