Where To Point The Finger Of Blame

The self-destruction of the American experiment in democracy will not come at the hands of the Worst, full as they are of passionate intensity. The Worst have always been full of passionate intensity.

The self-destruction of the American experiment comes at the hands of the Best who, lacking all conviction, latch on to what they perceive to be the "Lesser Worst" (whatever that's supposed to mean); they do this because, in addition to lacking conviction, they lack moral courage and a political imagination.

The Best, i.e., Liberals and Fauxgressives, are doing us in.
