Of C-130s and 527s

Like many new human-conceived innovations, the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C130">C-130 is neither inherently good nor inherently bad.

Its payload can be military materiel, or humanitarian aid.

Ditto the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/527_group">527 organization, which has been much maligned in the wake of the swiftboating that took place last go-around.

To say that Save the Children is evil because it has used a C-130 is just as illogical as to say that a group isn't progressive just because it's organized as a 527.
