Recommended Reading

Today's Thomas Friedman column. I'm recommending it to everyone. I think it ought to be required reading for all politicians, and tattooed on the corneas of most of the presidential candidates until the message soaks through their auto-response mechanisms and into their brains:
9/11 has made us stupid. I honor, and weep for, all those murdered on that day. But our reaction to 9/11 — mine included — has knocked America completely out of balance, and it is time to get things right again.
