US: Cultural Irrigation Needed?

[adderslj]

I'd be very interested as to what US readers think of this article.

Despite being published by The Guardian, it's from a right-wing commentator, incidentally.

This exchange reminded me of something I wrote back in October of '04:

Though I wouldn't normally have done so I watched (somewhat sporadically) the debate last night between Pres. Bush and Sen. Kerry. It was less painful than I thought it would be to watch and I came out of it feeling a bit better about Kerry than I did before, though I tend to think that feeling better about a politician because of a good performance is like feeling better about a tumor because it has stopped metastasizing for the moment.

Kerry may try running again in '08.
