Which Came First?
To begin with, many Americans are painfully just ignorant of world events. Unfortunately for us, these world events have come home to roost in the form of Islamist terrorism. So, many Americans have tried to deal with a complex world by looking at things through a distorted prism of their own creation.
Many Democrats find it easier to relate to a world they understand and are comfortable in. So, they create this make-believe world view. Instead of trying to understand the Islamist fascists and the danger they pose, why not demonize the Republicans and their President Bush? It's so much easier to do this than to accept a world of war and sacrifice and pain.
Will, this delusionary thinking on their part come to a halt? Personally, I don't think that sanity will return to the Dennis Kucinich-Sherrod Brown wing of the Democratic party unless we get smacked down "big time" by an act of terrorism on the scale of 9/11 -- and, very soon.
Let's assume that doesn't happen and I really hope it doesn't. For that more-peaceful (at least, in the short run) scenario, I have a prediction. At some point in the future, the Democratic fringe is going to blame 9/11 on the Iraq war.
