Second Best

From Juan Cole of Informed Comment:

I can still remember, as a child, the other children on the playground boasting that the US was the greatest country in the world, and the pride we all took from that. Predictably, George H. W. Bush's cokehead son has managed to reduce the US to the second largest economy after the eurozone. Bush was second best all his life, and has managed to make America second best.

But of course.

What do you expect from the Worst. President. Ever? After all, It's No Contest.
