    Just watched Jodie Mitchell perform "The Fiddle and The Drum" on the Dick Cavett show last night. Another Canadien with a good perspective.

    I like that this is not only a great photo, but a great example of making a title exactly what it needs to be--not more or less. I like the premise, too.

    Great photo!! It's completely true, our pre-decided prejudices and ideals get in the way of objective reality and what we really should do. Amazing work!

    This does not speak to me about Democracy. It appears to be the way US Busines and Administration understands the world. While looking out all they can see is themselves and are unwilling to understand that many places don't appreciate their greed.

    Yes. It is amazing the number of flag waving photos submitted!!!
    Patriotism, jingoistic or otherwise, is not democracy and it is amazing to be blinded by patriotic and nationalistc fervor to the true meaning of democracy. Very nice metaphorical shot.
