I am ashamed of my President and my country.

This piece is long, but I recommend reading it from beginning to end. As news story after news story has appeared bringing to light our conduct in "security" operations, my disgust with the administration, with the complacency of the American people, and with what has become of this America has grown and smoldered. Seeing the harsh truths set out in one place like this is enough to make me want to leave and not come back. I don't identify with a nation whose leadership does these things, and whose people fail to call that leadership to account. You're making your bed America, and one day you'll have to sleep in it. God willing, I'll be bunking somewhere else.
