“Not too long ago, I predicted that if I live to the average American male lifespan of 76 — I’m 46 now — I’ll have outlived the United States as we know it. At the time, I feared I was being over-optimistic, but lately I’m leaning the other way and thinking that my timetable may have been unduly timid. The recent temper tantrums of the American political class and its toadies abroad bring to mind an old saying (incorrectly attributed to Gandhi) — ‘first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win’ — and the Kubler-Ross model of grief. Our would-be masters appear to have moved forward from ‘denial’ to ‘anger’ in a big way.”
