American Nero?

What does it say about the gestalt of America that this man could have been remotely considered a hero? By my reckoning, every GI presently in harm's way on the killing fields of Iraq has more heroism in his or her pinky than this grade Z actor who provided the first model of the perfect figurehead for the Neocon death cult. I guess it worked. Is there Soma in the water out in the heartland, or does 8 hours of TV each day do the job as efficiently?

Try a dose of reality here.
