Arundhati Roy is Totally My Hero.

So, I was casually reading through some research materials and then I get hit with the quote of a lifetime:

"We can expose George Bush and Tony Blair - and their allies - for the cowardly baby killers, water poisoners, and pusillanimous long-distance bombers that they are," says Arundhati Roy, amazing and incredible anti-imperialization activist. She rocks hardcore. She called Bush a baby killer! Throughout her speech to a Latin American audience she made snide comments about the US government "killing people for democracy!"

She talks about shaming empire with culture! I love her. I've read her books before and enjoyed them, but it is amazing how she gets so much good information out there and is also so very entertaining. Everyone should go read this speech right now.
