Excellent article that asks the hard questions in the aftermath of September 11 and makes some nefarious, albeit warranted conclusions.

Americans of late like to think of themselves as a particularly brave and patriotic breed. But is that really an accurate assessment of the qualities that we, as citizens of this nation, have exhibited since September 11?

By "we," I am referring here to the purported 90% of Americans who think that George Bush is doing a dandy job of waging his 'War on Terrorism.' That, of course, assumes that the results of public opinion polls reported by the U.S. media are any more credible than the rest of the swill that the press tries to pass off as 'news.'

Although the actual percentage is likely considerably lower than 90%, there are without question a sizable number of Americans who have wholeheartedly lined up behind our intellectually challenged commander-in-chief in response to the 'terrorist' attacks. And that, as far as I can see, makes us not a nation of heroes, but a nation of cowards.

Excellent analysis. We've been developing this denial myopia since at least11/22/63 [the JFK assassination date for those gen X -ers who got no history from public school "history"courses.]

Keep on hitting David.

Sadly true and frightning to be reminded of the real way it

is in this country. Fellow patriots, we have our work cut out for us. Give me liberty or give me death!
