We lost our way after the end of the Cold War.

Like it or not, the Cold War gave us a sense of purpose....with it over, we seem too eager to find new monsters to fight.

Yeah, 'fraid you're right. Tell you the truth, I do long for the days of the Cold War because of what you just said. If it was still going on, I say a President like Clinton getting elected would have been 50/50 and Obummer would be lucky to get into the primaries.

A side notw, one of my favorite sites is TV Tropes where they have good, and sometimes funny, articles on most things. one of my favorites is Why we are Bummed Communism Fell

Come to think of it, Obummer's recent actions apply here too in an article called Make The Bear Angry Again.
