Everything is ultimately the Americans' fault
While discussing the political ramifications of Fahrenheit 9/11, Michael Moore's latest film, in his column a weeks ago, The Economist's commentator on American politics, the pseudonymous Lexington, made the following observation:
But "Fahrenheit 9/11" also has some worrying implications for the Democrats. It reminds middle America that liberal activists like to blame their own country for the world's problems.
Though I'm far from sure I agree with the "liberal" label Lexington apples, I have to concede (much as it pains me to do so) that such a tendency does indeed exist.
