Time and again, Mark Steyn writes a piece that should be required reading for everyone who is, or pretends to be, or wants to be a leader of the United States. This is another one of those occasions.
Thank you for posting this on this day, as we are watching the dedication of the World War II Memorial. And I hope he does a magnificent job compared to his last major speech.

Bush and Rove should commit this article to memory.
Steyn writes:
They had victims galore back in 1863, but they weren't a victim culture. They had a lot of crummy decisions and bureaucratic screwups worth re-examining, but they weren't a nation that prioritized retroactive pseudo-legalistic self-flagellating vaudeville over all else."
That man can craft a mean sentence.
