Apologies if someone has already posted this website, but I just saw it today. I was looking through the gallery of photos - and all of a sudden I saw a fellow DU'er represented. Beautiful!
William Rivers Pitt
Teacher, Writer, Political Activist: b. 1971
"Why so much war? Because war is a profitable enterprise. George W. Bush and his people can hold forth about the wonders of democracy and peace, and can condemn worldwide violence in solemn tones. Until the United States stops being the world's largest arms dealer, these words from our government absolutely reek of hypocrisy."

Should be a great game.
Kickoff in about an hour.
And Will Pitt?
We differ on policy occasionally,
but he is a valuable asset to DU,
and I read his posts.
I'll give a Geaux Saints toast to Will Pitt!

Name some positive outcome from the Afghan and Iraq wars. Not an imaginary positive like, "We are giving them freedom." Something real.
