Quote:
"The choice is vivid. The stakes are vast. Our nation is threatened by jihad warriors who scoff at boundaries. It stumbles toward a fiscal ruin that will punish our children. The rules that protect our air, water and health are weaker than we know. When 45 million of our neighbors fall ill, they have no insurance card to hand to the doctor. We boast of exporting liberty and rule of law, yet watch them erode at home. A hooded prisoner on a box has replaced a soaring lady with a lamp as the global icon of America's intentions. Our national discourse has grown peevish, choking on distortion and bile..."
- Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper endorses John Kerry for President

...His biography of Picasso's masterpiece, Guernica, portrays the painting as an active player on the world stage. More than just a symbol or a political instrument, Guernica has fought in wars, from the Spanish civil war to the cold war. It has spoken out against atrocities in Vietnam and in Iraq. It was Franco's nemesis and his desire. More than 30 years after the death of its maker, the painting continues to make its voice heard today... [BOOK]
