The scent of blood is in the water. The U.S. is on its knees and its enemies are taking bite-sized chunks out of the perception of the invincibility, stability, and confidence that has been the United States of America circa 20th Century.
In the nine years that have passed since the millennium, the ‘beloved’ Bush administration [...]
