Their quest was freedom, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for ‘we the people’. We owe it to their memories to live up to the spirit of their words that have carried us through the darkest of times.

You are celebrating a person’s life for those left behind instead of tearing them down in front of all of us. My hat’s off to you.

Murrow and the countless others who knew in their hearts that telling the story was a duty to their fellow Americans.

I am calling upon them to do so since we have bigger problems to solve such as our $5 billion dollar budget deficit that affects each and every New Yorker. While many New Yorker’s suffer, Eliot Spitzer’s libido did not suffer.

Our founders would be ashamed not only at you, your party, the Republican Party, but they would be spinning in their graves seeing a media abridge free speech.

But, the sad and angering fact is that these politicians do not see it as we do. With the snap of a finger, you may be the next to go without health insurance. Do you feel the terror yet?

This column is also dedicated to the countless innocent Iraqis who have been killed at the hands of the United States government. Main Page
