The Assault on Reason

Posted : May 18, 2007 at 6:24 pm [America/Los_Angeles]

It is too easy and too partisan to simply place the blame on the policies of President George W. Bush. We are all responsible for the decisions our country makes. We have a Congress. We have an independent judiciary. We have checks and balances. We are a nation of laws. We have free speech. We have a free press. Why have they all failed us? … American democracy is now in danger not from any one set of ideas, but from unprecedented changes in the environment within which ideas either live and spread, or wither and die.

- Al Gore, “The Assault on Reason”

And there are still many, many Americans who hate this man’s guts and yet find our current President George W. Bush just dandy.
