Telling Comment

Eric Alterman was reviewing the DVD collection of the 1950s Superman series. He led with this:

Those were the days, huh, when the “American way” was synonymous with “truth and justice.” Well of course, it never was. But it was a whole hellova lot more credible than under Messrs. Bush and Cheney.

He can't pass up an opertunity to denigrate Bush or America. The "Well of course, it never was." part is a nice summary of what he thinks of America, past and present. I would like to know if any country ever lived up to his high expectations (and why he hasn't moved there).
