I am soooooo jealous he gets to trek and write whatever he sees.
On the occasion I am also glad that I am changing diapers, cleaning chocolatey hands, detangling hair, clearing dog-piles a.k.a. backyard landmines instead of dodging bullets, eating dust and be surrounded by smelly men.
He still has my dream job:
"I do not report this because I harbor animosity for the current administration, or to magnify any mistakes it has made, but only so that the American people, and readers around the world, can be presented with at least one set of eyes and ears that are reasonably politically color-blind and tone-deaf. If the truth helps the administration, so be it. If the truth damages the administration, so be it. More important is to provide information people can use in their own decision cycles. Whether or not anyone agrees with the reasons for starting this war, we invaded Iraq, and should complete the mission, and that needs to be defined clearly as a stable and democratic Iraq, and not as a date on a calendar. We have to stop treating the truth like a work in progress or a lump of clay that we can shape into an image or icon. "
