Driving back from DC today, I caught some coverage of the President’s speech in Norway (receiving the Nobel Peace Prize (for those on Mars)). Listening to extensive excerpts of the speech, his words and tone made me think of the Korean War Memorial in D.C., the pinnacle of which has this quote:
“Freedom isn’t Free.”
Then I thought of Oct 1, at Scott Stadium, when Bono ad-libbed these words in a quiet moment during a song… “Freedom was born on Christmas day.”
