I believe this is 100% right. But is there addendum learning to be had?
What does it mean - TO YOU - that Americans were (to be generous, from 2001 - 2010(?)) we were all arguing about "them ayrabs who attacked us because we are free" and how no one seemed to mind that there was PURPOSEFUL muddying of who is Arab and who isn't and what are Arabs and how Iraq and Afghanistan are not the same thing but we went to war with both anyway.
How do you view that? Not a DECADE ago we were criticizing W admin for all this, and now we all get the feels from the Obamas, Clintons and Ws sitting together sharing breath mint?
Does it matter?
Do you realize how Ws legacy has now been wholly exonerated? He will now pass into history as a "not-so-bad-guy" who "faced tough times in the white house" blah blah. SIMPLY because someone perceived as "worse" has come along.
Again I reiterate - we have a disgusting barely human gutter snipe in there now, but how does that compare to someone who sent thousands to be killed and killed thousands more (the "Ayrabs")?
How does it compare?
How do the Obamas (or Clintons for the matter) and the Ws sit there on LIVE TV giving each other handjobs while jabbing the current president? Current has been called racist for the border issues. W was called racist for "Them Ayrabs". But Ws sins are washed away now.
How long before the current president finds exoneration in the future?
All major democrats hated W. They hated his regime and his admin and his advisors. They outright called him liar, warmongerer and said his "facts" for war were little more than excuses created to accomplish other things on the globe. The current president has not even done any of that. But because of this funeral, we get a rare glimpse into how HOMOGENIZED "Washington" is, and that WE REALLY THINK there is a difference between blue and red but, in fact, purple is the ruling authority.
