We don't need another hero

Boy, you could see this coming. No sooner did that woman in Georgia use an evangelical Christian best-seller to talk down a fleeing murderer than right-wingers jumped all over the story, lionizing the woman as a champion. Well, I'm happy for her. She'll get a book deal and a movie deal and her life will turn around. And she did handle the situation beautifully. I just hope she won't become an insufferable, ubiquitous tool of the right wing now. Because we have enough of those, you know?
