To which I can only respond with a yawn. In every generation, some elite -- often several -- will rationalize that they are the right & proper guardians of all that's decent, and therefore deserve not to be held accountable. Yes, this has happened from the Left in dire ways, from time to time. But it happens from the Right... from the clade of the ungrateful aristocratic rich (as opposed to the grateful rich, whose ranks I plan to join!)... EVERY SINGLE GENERATION WITHOUT FAIL. Since Pharoah's time. Name one exception. ===== . . * Please note. My email address of many years is changing FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...
