"That line between history and drama for the Kennedys was never very thick, like the line between American realism and our yearning for royalty, and for comforting political myths."

I've always wondered if the idiots on the extreme left ever realized that Camelot was a mythical place that never truly existed? I think what I've despised the most about the Kennedy's over the years is the fact that too many people in this country wanted to treat them like American royalty.

The essense of America is that there is no royalty here. We strive to treat everyone the same. My fear is not the passing of the Camelot myth, but the passing of this myth. There are people in this country that are indeed treated differently because of who they are. Showcase example one would be Uncle Teddy...

The end of the story is that a great famine hits the world, the economy crashes, everything turns to third-world BS, and eve the Camelodeans are dragged into the side of a mountain and removed from the world stage.

Too many Democrats imagine that the Dark Age ends with their arrival, not that it begins!
