there buster Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 A mini movie review (not by me) The Dark Knight (2008): This film gives us a portrait of the hero as a man reviled. In his fight against the terrorist Joker, Batman has to devise new means of surveillance, push the limits of the law, and accept the hatred of the press and public. If that sounds reminiscent of a certain former president—whose stubborn integrity kept the nation safe and turned the tide of war—don’t mention it to the mainstream media. Our journalists know that good men are often despised by the mob; it just never seems to occur to them that they might be the mob themselves.

Administrators Gail Posted February 13, 2009 Administrators Share Posted February 13, 2009 I'm not sure that that's what Ichabod's saying. He's quoting someone else... I find the comment interesting, too BUT I've no comment on my own other than that! Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
