  1. Sounds like Hillary. But that’s probably wrong. I’ll bet it was one of the “good guys”, whose image now (like most good guys) will be irreparably marred in my mind….

  2. But the more I think about it… I think it is about right. That America doesn’t happen to be an “extended family”, and never less so than now, means merely that America is not (and perhaps never was) a nation, but rather an empire, which… is about right.

    Ah, I googled. Surprisingly unsurprising.

  3. When a greater idea is brought into the service of a lesser one, it is always to the detriment of the greater idea. Comparing a family to a nation can only help to further undermine the significance and nature of families. It is a strategy of detachment rather than one of attachment.
