She is an American. Period. A stupid American for going to Iran given her political record? Yes.

Since when does America go to war in the name of a single American citizen? Never. And we’re not about to do it now for this specific American who went despite the State Department’s warnings.

America (or ‘we’) should do whatever we normally do in such situations. Why? Because it’s in America’s best interest and in the interest of Esha.

You can loathe her politics, her judgement, and her agenda, but it all pales in comparison to the fact that she is one of ours.

We’re more divided as a nation than ever, especially, many of us think, because of this fraud Obama who might become our next president. I agree with those of you who are sickened by this prospect. But we still need to think as a single people, as Americans, especially in case likes these.

Forgive me the sermon, but it was sincere.
