Still staying the course?

Ever been in a car where everyone including the driver knew he took the wrong road, and he is still driving down that road thinking he might find a way not to have to turn around?

Now imagine for a moment that the road is filled with land mines or IED's, and some poor guy is out in front on a bicycle -- the security detail for this little excursion. In fact, there are thousands of men and women on bicycles -- and so far, only 1,900 have been killed and another 18,000 injured (many quite severely).

You and I -- we're in the car. In the backseat, watching the video screen and chilling out. We're safe and comfy, and nobody we know is out there on a bike.

How long we gonna ride like this, I wanna know?
How long you gonna be all comfy in that back seat?
No wonder Cindy Sheehan is pissed.

How about you?
