Resign, Rumsfeld

I don't always agree with The Economist's editorial positions - but this says it all:

The scandal is widening, with more allegations coming to light. Moreover, the abuse of these prisoners is not the only damaging error that has been made and it forms part of a culture of extra-legal behaviour that has been set at the highest level. Responsibility for what has occurred needs to be taken—and to be seen to be taken—at the highest level too. It is plain what that means. The secretary of defence, Donald Rumsfeld, should resign. And if he won't resign, Mr Bush should fire him.

Julian of Norwich

After all the crap of the last week - especially the Abu Ghraib fiasco - it was nice to go to choir practice and find out that we're going to do Julian of Norwich again. Not only is it a neat piece, but I really needed to hear the chorus:

Ring, out, bells of Norwich, and
Let the winter come and go
All will be well again, I know
