Subject: stature?
Lauren -
Forgive me for laughing. You want somebody of "stature" to stand up
to the bullies and a**holes who can't see how torture degrades them
in the eyes of the world?
The problem is that "stature" today means a well-known person who has
made a career ov being an opportunistic suck-up to the rich and
powerful. Someone who lacks personal courage and builds his
reputation by paying image consultants like people used to pay
hairdressers.
Being saved by a coward seems unlikely.
