If You Read Nothing Else Today, Read This

A story of genuine heroism -- an Amish schoolgirl who faced an unjust death with a kind of courage rarely seen this side of heaven -- is being lost among the hyperpoliticized charges involving ex-Congressman Mark Foley.

Fortunately, The Anchoress has noticed.  If you read nothing else today, read this and then read this.

One of these stories will still matter 20 years from now.  The other will not. 

One story will soon be yesterday's news.  The other story, poignant and painful though it is, will ring through the halls of eternity.

In 20 years, if the MSM gets its way, the Foley story will still be alive and well. And that's a small part of the greater tragedy.
