Our political system has failed us, our media have failed us, and neither have any inkling of the Wagnerian drama about to unfold.
UPDATE: hadn't seen this from Bob last week, but he seems every bit as gloomy as Wolcott...
Funny, I haven't seen the TV anchors mentioning this at all.
Looking at the CNN website right now: ooh, there's a new appeal in the Schiavo case, a Boy Scout leader enjoys boys wearing knickers, Hilary Swank has legal trouble, Jerry Falwell is sick, 300,000 people are dead without context in Sudan, Moby has a new album, and there's a special report on how Katherine Harris' political career is going.
You'd think CNN would at least mention the likely self-inflicted demise of civilization.
