    Good article. All Empires of history have followed the same script, birth in a cause, grow in pride for country and practice morality for human beings, become dominate and start to let corruption inside government, become the haven for the few and the ghetto for the many, start one war too many, go the way all the others have gone.

    But each and every one could have done better. If the people had decided they wanted their country to remain a bastion of good governance and a people of good will.

    Or as Chuck said - elect McCain and his sidekick and we can speed up the demise.

      "Elect McCain and his sidekick and we can speed up the demise."

      True, and not a bad argument for a McCain presidency, although he would never make it his campaign slogan.
