Magnanimous Defeat

Magnanimous Defeat 12/19/2004 03:31 PM
Boy, does this suck. Even with a couple of days of perspective, it still sucks. And it may suck for 4 more years.It may suck until sometime in late 2012, when the Mayans seem to think time and space will collapse and everything will suck everything into everything else. And that will really suck. But, for now, life goes on. I feel as if half the people in America have just forced a fat crow down my gullet. I am compelled to admit that I am genuinely out of touch with half my country. I feel like I'm suffering the death of a loved one. I'm not sure which of the stages of grief I've reached at this point, but I'm pretty well past denial. I'm mourning a number of losses, one of which is the belief that "my side" is actually a clear majority that would reveal itself if we ever shuffled off our disdain for politics and voted in any force. ( Actually, we may be a majority - I don't trust these results - but even if we are, our margin is very slender and we were too dumb, diffident and disorganized to prevent the other side from successfully gaming the system. I would be angry about that if it would do any good, but I see where anger has gotten us so far.) I worked last night on processing all that wrath. To accelerate the process, I watched several conspiracy videos. I pondered over the plane the wreckage of which isn't visible in the pictures of the whacked wing of the Pentagon, I wondered how the New York Fire Department could have "pulled" 7 World Trade Center without having spent weeks preparing it for demolition, why no jets were scrambled to take out the hijacked planes, how the Patriot Act appeared so suddenly after the World Trade Massacre, etc. But believing that 9/11 was a vast, right-wing conspiracy is as pointless at this stage as believing in the likelier possibility that the exit polls were actually as accurate in Ohio in Florida as they were everywhere else. Maybe it will all come out someday, but there's precious little we can do about it now. Who are we going to complain to? The authorities? i even rented Fahrenheit 911, which I had never seen before, and was halfway through that when a young man who lives where I'm staying in Playa del Rey came home. Dale is a very solid guy from the Midwest. He's decent, enthusiastic, friendly, and resourceful. His girlfriend is an FBI agent. He's as American as it gets. (Though I've often thought the same of my own weird self.) He didn't want to talk politics. He's too polite, but I dragged him into a conversation anyway. Even though he had not discussed it with the other two people who live here, I had a feeling he was a Bush supporter. Which, in fact, he turned out to be. It became obvious right away that we were not in substantial disagreement over many policies. Dale was hoping that Bush in his second term would push for reduced dependence on oil and would come around on the environment. He wasn't crazy about the war. Our differences were over culture and style. Dale doesn't like Europe, though he's never been there. He's met Europeans and he resents their supercilious attitude towards us. He figures it for jealousy. "America," he said, "is like the captain of the football team, the most popular kid in school." He was describing his recent self, I expect. "The Europeans are like the chess club and they resent this guy cause he's the one who gets all the girls, even though he's not an intellectual like they are." I eyed him carefully, while secretly inspecting myself for similar resentments. It was lucky for both of us that he doesn't actually get all the girls. "Really," he said, "it's about character. It's about morality." "Wait," I said, "What about the morality of killing a hundred thousand Iraqis for no good reason?" "Saddam was killing them too." I doubted that even Saddam has ever killed as many Iraqis in a year and a half as we've just polished off, but I let that pass. "Besides, when Bush attacked, he thought he had a good reason. I can't believe he didn't think America was in danger." I could, but I let that pass too. This young man had been trained to respect authority just as surely as I had learned to suspect it. Whatever our agreements, we would always be separate in that regard. It was something that had grown into him in his lower middle class Christian home in central Illinois, along with a good pitching arm, in the same way that Bohemianism had taken root in me during the 60's. Morality and character are words that have subtly different meanings to each of us. And a lot of the divide has to do with the degree to which we are willing to admit the feminine into our natures. I think he suspects I'm a little too sensitive. It's less about character and morality than it is about masculinity. We have different notions about what it is to be a man, and they are important to us. But they don't necessarily make a bad fella out of either one of us. We both represent aspects of the American psyche that need each other, the jock and the intellectual, the Boy Scout and the renegade, the guardian and the wild card. We both love this great and terrible country, even as we fear one another's excessive influence on it, and part of what we love is the creative fever that arises from our division. As we need each other, however unwillingly, so America needs us both. Perhaps it's just the bargaining phase of grief, but I can see that one of the things I must do to feel less a stranger in my own...

With bidding for AT&T Wireless Services Inc. due to close at 5 p.m. Eastern time Friday, whoever loses may put their failure down to bad luck.
