Two Years
It's been two years since my last post.
I'm shocked; I wouldn't have thought it more than a year.
It's been a busy time, yada yada yada.
The truth is, I haven't had the heart. Bush & Co., the neo-cons, have been very successfully destroying all that was good about this nation. Their corruption makes the Nixon Administration look like a bunch of amateurs. Almost no one has stood up to them. No one has made a dent. My previous missive on the fate of the Great Experiment still stands two years on. I hate to keep saying “we're doomed,” so I haven't said anything.
However, we're moving in to a new election. The policies won't change, much, but the actors will. It's an opportunity to think about the system that is American politics, and why it is so destructive. A chance to compare and contrast, and see the similarities imprinted on candidates by the system. While I'm working on this, posting may pick up. Maybe there'll be a post a month, instead of a post every two years.
Echoing Edward R. Murrow, I can only wish you good luck.
