gore vidal tells it like it is

“So there’s no real need for America to have a great army? ‘Of course not! It’s only there to make the ruling class feel good.’ There’s no existential threat to the West? Not Islamism, not Russian nukes? ‘No! Don’t believe a word of it. You’ve got some goddam fool writers in this country who go on about Islamic radicals without understanding Islam at all. You think George W. Bush knows what Islamism is? He’s far too stupid for that. He just wants to feel like a big man and go to war. You know, I’ve been thinking about running for Congress this year — I won’t now because it’s too late — just to have the power of analysing the lies of the administration. That’s all Congress does, is to take a look at the overview of the lies that the executive branch is telling you. I’d send every one of them to prison.’

I have always loved Gore Vidal. That man knows how to spell it out, leaving nothing to the imagination.
The question is: how did someone as stupid as Bush get to be President, twice? Methinks something is rotten in Denmark!
When is the penny going to drop that the American political system is deeply flawed and needs urgent revision, a complete makeover? It’s obvious to most people in the world.
Why not Americans?

it is obvious to a few here too- unfortunately, there are more morons here than enlightened ones and they only tend to see things as they want them to be and not as they are- or should be. it’s a real problem. and, yes, i realize it’s an understatement
