BILL TOTTEN'S WEBLOG<<
Look below and read with delight the entries in Mr. Totten's Weblog, I hadn't written in quite some time and thus believe that these two essays are very nice. They are as clever as they are curious. They provoke one to reconsider one's point of view in regard to how we are taught to see and imagine our country to be in the face of how we know it really is. We can look at the past and see it's weaknesses parked right next to the weaknesses of our society today. Like wise, we can see the cognitive disonance that we continually live esconced in. We as United Statesers, recongnize that we owe our proscribed greatness to a multitude of exogenous and endogenous factors that flowed themselves from other causes, and, furthermore we are young as a nation and very big as well as immature. We are insolary, narcissistic, plagued by disfunctional, yet highly dynamic and always creative new causes c`elebres. Somehow we do work as a very functional elephant despite our mouse like beginnings. And though one could describe our entire country as a giant daycare center, many times, for inexplicable reasons, for those who cry totalitarianism,.. a weak cry a far off is magnified to a full sonourous wail that is heard throughout the land. From that one cry, that should be muffled, comes change, a new... for better... or worse, that we all try out as "Americans".
