Hope springs...
Reader comment on item: One Cheer for Obama's Arab-Israeli Policy
Submitted by Doug Corrigan (United States), Sep 15, 2009 at 20:15
The old saying that 'Hope springs eternal in the human breast...' (or something to that effect) is ever true. Unfortunately, stupidity, like the poor, is "...always with us." I'm totally amazed how people can make their ridiculous suggestions for solutions to problems like these and totally ignore the reality of history.
