Exhibit A would be the great war advocate, George W. Bush.
Can there be a more perfect synthesis of the last 20 years of disappointing American politics than this man? He exemplifies everything-unaware, unashamed, unapologetic-that the American ruling class has become.
What kind of a person stands on the very spot where heroic, valiant Americans perished in a tragic last-ditch effort to save a symbol of their ruling class-either the Capitol or the White House, no one knows for certain-and dares to offer criticism of the American people? What kind of cretin could possibly stir himself to lecture the public.
Does any thinking person for a moment believe, were the shoe on the other foot, that a plane load of Bushes, Clintons, and Obamas, highjacked and heading straight for Dollywood with the intention of killing as many ordinary Americans as possible, would rise up and sacrifice themselves to save us?
Instead of heaping praise on this small group of valiant Flight 93 Americans, and humbly asking their forgiveness for his errant and misguided attempts to avenge them, including the embarrassing foreign adventurism undertaken in their name, Bush instead searched the American landscape for a recent, festering wound to scratch ... and broke it wide open.
American citizens behaving badly should not be compared, under any circumstances, to the people who pulverized, at terrific speed, airplanes full of innocents into some of our most iconic and important buildings, instantly killing themselves and everyone onboard in a final nihilistic act of rage and impotent fury.
The most heartbreakingly beautiful thing about Flight 93 is that it stands as the sole American response and victory on that terrible day-a day when the entirety of our ruling class failed to defend us.
