<< But the United States, circa 2007, doesn’t appear capable of acting expeditiously on behalf of its citizens or its national interests.
The importance of timely action in terminating the Bush-Cheney administration is brushed aside as unworthy of discussion, impossible, crazy. It is far simpler to condemn Larry Craig for his stall-to-stall footsie with a plainclothes cop than to hold Bush and Cheney accountable for an illegal war and a variety of other high crimes and misdemeanors.
So the drift toward the precipice continues with almost no one taking note of the chasm below. >>
<< In a nation that cared more about its soldiers and its long-term interests, the news shows and the political class would be exploring how these present-and-future disasters might be averted or reversed, how Bush and Cheney could be presented with “an offer they can’t refuse,” either resign or face the humiliation of bipartisan impeachment.
But the United States, circa 2007, doesn’t appear capable of acting expeditiously on behalf of its citizens or its national interests. >>
