Why is the obvious invisible?
Blumenthal's commentary, as usual, is incisive and on point. It is disturbing that the public generally is not aroused by the obvious intellectual, moral and political failures of this administration. It is ironic that we are creating, at home, the very demagoguery we have gone to war to abolish and that, now that we know where the weapons of mass destruction are (Iran and Korea), we are helpless in the face of them. It is devastating to realize that Rovian dirty tricks,spin, hype and reducing complex world issues to absurd, fantastical slogans actually seem to work. We now live in an environment where public relations has supplanted actual policy-making. Please, America, wake up before the mid-term elections!
