A nation that went to war thinking that it would be quick and easy, but then getting bogged down, becoming polarized, falling into financial difficulties, losing confidence in their government, looking desperately for strong leadership, and falling for conspiracy theories and false accusations about those within and without who oppose the romantic call for cultural purity and supposed morality...?

Review by: Walt Long on Sep. 28, 2010 : star star star star star
Julie Butler's intricate analysis of the connectivity of events - past and present - warrants a careful study. Her arduous essay is more passionate than pedantic, written as a sorrowful witness to the decay of her beloved country. She outlines the dangers of a nation divided not by ideology, but by a less-than-honest media controlled by the very international business community that controls more and more of our everyday lives. We're faced with the task of paying attention and understanding what's going on, or accepting the farcical explanations handed down by media hucksters posing as newsmen and political leaders.

Review by: spookie on Sep. 24, 2010 : (no rating)
Cogent and succinct? I fail to see how sentences more than 100 words long can be described as "succinct." And "White House" is the proper name of the residence of the President of the United States of America, and should be capitalized.
