A Note From India: 'Give me the US of A any old time.'
Today I read one of the most thoughtful op-ed pieces from a foreign paper I have ever read. It was written by political reporter Tavleen Singh of Delhi's Indian Express newspaper. Here is an excerpt:
HT: Watching America
If you've got a minute, hop on over and check out the article."Even as someone who has difficulties with many aspects of President Bush’s policies I found myself on his side last week when the streets of Delhi and Mumbai filled up with the sort of people who oppose him. They were a motley crew. A melange of Marxists, Islamists and well-meaning loonies of activist genre and if they should ever be in a position to create the world of their dreams it would be a totalitarian, Marxist, Islamist theocracy. How scary is that? Give me the US of A any old time. It is a free society as is our own, and we would like to keep it that way."
