At least then people went out and kicked up their heels at the discos, where today you can hardly find a dance club even in a large metro region. This despite the intense popularity of the "Dancing with the Stars" TV show.
Yep. If anything, the National Malaise has become the new normal. The feeling that we can't get anything done has become a conviction that we shouldn't try to get anything done.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
