"What would Dix, Beckmann, Grosz & Co. be inspired to paint if they were living in America today? It boggles the mind to imagine."

I suspect that Beckman and Co. would find their worthy subjects for decadence, not among us "conservatives (if that is what we are)," but among the Hollywood glitterati and other super wealthy members of the Left.

Germany was obsessed with its own importance, having recently been unified into one country in 1870.

Not knowing which way to go, Neitchze's philosophy triumphing over all, the underbelly of human nature reigned.

True, we have our sordid elements here in the US of A. However, we have a much stronger religious dynamic going on here in America than Germany had, despite the haranguing voice of the media elites. We have a century of totalitarianism to look back on and learn from; Germany was just on the cusp of entering into that era caused in large part by its own spiritual depravity.

And we must not forget Gore's daughter in the gown so sheer it was see through.
