The pseudonymous CDR Salamander ponders the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal three years later. His (?) conclusion rings true with me.
Our self-described "best" that claim to be the ruling class are not our best. They are not good at their jobs. Their ideas are garbage. Their ethics are fetid to the core. Their morality sold for a farthing's worth of power, fame, and influence.
That description fits most Democrats and more than a few Bush-era Republicans. Whether our once great nation can survive with them at the helm is unclear, unfortunately. Hat tip to Instapundit for the link.
