A little Latino flair to the travelin’ music this evening

As you might have gathered by now, I’m partial to many types of music. One of my favorite bands is Los Lobos, an L.A.-based group that features a unique Mexican blues/rock fusion. I’ve never had the chance to see them in person, but that’s going to change this evening at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. (One of the Southeast’s best blues bands, Atlanta-based Delta Moon, opens for them.)

I hope Los Lobos play this one tonight, it’s one of their best.

KSM thinks America is a racist country? He studies the bible so he can better understand his enemy?

Racist because you’re expected to pay your bills? G_d is the enemy?

Sounds like a liberal to me.

It has been illustrative to see the monstrous amount of sheer venom unleashed this week.

For all you Kennedy haters, a stroll down memory lane. See if you can remember this one:

“Our future may lie beyond our vision, but it is not completely beyond our control. It is the shaping impulse of America that neither fate nor nature nor the irresistible tides of history, but the work of our own hands, matched to reason and principle, that will determine our destiny. There is pride in that, even arrogance, but there is also experience and truth. In any event, it is the only way we can live.”

This is the way he lived. My brother need not be idealized, or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life, to be remembered simply as a good and decent man, who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it.

Those of us who loved him and who take him to his rest today, pray that what he was to us and what he wished for others will some day come to pass for all the world.

As he said many times, in many parts of this nation, to those he touched and who sought to touch him: Some men see things as they are and say why – I dream things that never were and say why not.
