A peek, Craig, a peek into America's psyche is what I said. A big window on the world provides what it is. Misfires often provides part of why. No country is as aware of your culture as your neighbour, closest friend and business partner, Canada.

I didn't refer to "leaders who don't think" as causing sadness. I commented on American members here, a minority of conservatives of actorly ego, who denigrate shamelessly their country and institutions and citizens because others think differently than they do.
