Back from the beyond

Post – April 10, 2002

Well, our pal William Bennett is at it again, preaching about “moral clarity” in this new war on terror. But I found the questions asked in an interview of him on the National Review web site even more repulsive than his responses:

Q: What is it that needs to be drilled into Americans so they can be behind this war effort for the long-term? Is there some kind of mantra we can teach schoolchildren?

This is scary stuff, especially because there’s such a market for it these days. As they said, after all, Mussolini made the trains run on time.

    The question asked definitely highlights a “teach what to think not how to think” kind of attitude that I don’t agree with.

    Does anyone else get the feeling that, following the fall of the Soviet Union, the United States have been taking up the slack in terms of totalitarian behavior?
