Wow. The text appears after several days and is a surprise. The author wishes for a more quiet and sedate time, you know, when Karl Rove was around. When war criminals led us to invade a nation and kill thousands of its citizens in a "shock and awe" campaign of unimaginable horror and, you know, screams and other such noise.
Sooner or later Great Britain will be getting their report on the lies that led to the Iraq war. We, on the other hand, will be getting odd commentaries like this one, that compares the barbarism of the Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld era with a shouting match. 
Anger and despair sound loud and usually involve bad grammar and insults. I, for one, think this election is all about the chaos and cacophony of a people waking to the fact their leaders have let privileged characters loot the treasury and enrich themselves as the poor die. 
As for me, Trump's insults and accurate comments on the W. war were about the only genuine part of the discussion.
