A prayer to Nuestra Señora de las Estradas:

Why? As though there is not enough blood spilled in the desert.

A prayer of thanks that my loved ones are safe, a prayer of desperation that others are not.

The dead: Christina Greene, 9, Gabe Zimmerman, 30, John Roll, 63, Dorthy Murray, 76, Dorwin Stoddard, 76, Phyllis Scheck, 79.
And a political leader who is by all accounts decent, for isn't that the most sacred thing in politics, is critically wounded. For what? To prove a point? For a crazy man's wild fantasy that his legacy would last?


John McCain said it best: this is a disgrace to Arizona.

Little Christina was born on 9/11/2001. She was nine. And she was stolen from our desert and our sky.
