Quote of the Day: Them Shoots of Beauty

"Grunt work somewhere between dream and duty
poking through with all them shoots of beauty"




Video from Sunday's protest in Tehran, which the Ahmadinejad-Khameini government manfully "allowed," a cheap, transparent PR move by A-K to pretend to honor their Islamic duty and try to defuse some opposition anger while pretending to tolerate some measured protest (even as they were rounding up more protesters and opposition members in night-time raids last night). The protesters, however, did make the most of it. The Iranian opposition is incredible.
