    Do you ever wish to be wrong?

    While I can not go into the particulars, today something bad happened to a constituent who came for help that I saw coming from a mile away. I knew they had made a mistake doing what they did, I made my apprehensions known, but still, a little hope existed in some basic human decency. But I guess I was right about my suspicions.

    Knowing full well this will invariably end up being about Iraq or terrorism, besides those two things (one facet of them or the other), have there been any times having being right was not a consolation or pleasure for you?

    Lots. Groups and scads. Beau coup.
    It's like waiting and watching a train wreck.

      Yeah, probably. I don't remember.

          Like you. whenever I see something bad on the horizon for me or anyone I care about I hope that I'm wrong.

              Yeah, sure. It happens to me fairly often. Lumps. Spots. Pains. That sort of thing.
