The American character

I had to subscribe to read it all, could someone sum up the article?

People in politics talk about the right track/wrong track numbers as an indicator of public mood. This week Gallup had a poll showing only 24% of Americans feel we're on the right track as a nation. That's a historic low. Political professionals tend, understandably, to think it's all about the economy—unemployment, foreclosures, we're going in the wrong direction. I've long thought that public dissatisfaction is about more than the economy, that it's also about our culture, or rather the flat, brute, highly sexualized thing we call our culture.

Now I'd go a step beyond that. I think more and more ...

Cool story, bro.

America's going down the drain and it's all the liberals fault. There we go, summarized.

Of course, it's a crock of **** to assume that one party is to blame for everything, but there you go.

How to you come to such an odd interpretation?

It's clearly what the article is pushing for.

Six and a half sentences hardly constitute an article.

New England.

Boston is Hell on Earth. I don't know why people live there.

Also, by formal I don't mean black tie, I mean more like what used to be semi-formal, that is a suit.

It's not nearly as bad as the hot and humid Georgia heat. I'll take Boston.

I love the sound of the US. It sounds really good. Really interesting, diverse, complex.

Don't expect I'll ever get to see it, though.

Don't expect the US will ever want me to see.

The American character was good, but I liked the guy with the ears, and the Russian asking about Nuclear Wessels.

I don't know how i missed this post before.

The nation seems to be on the wrong track, and not just economically.

Nope. Clearly also journalistically.

That's not a journalist, that's a pundit
