Why Americans Are Exhausted

Peggy Noonan, in her current WSJ column, explains why Americans are exhausted and think the country is on the wrong track—and it's not just about war and healthcare debates. It's about who we're becoming as a nation as exemplified by Adam Lambert's perverted performance recently on the ABC broadcast of the American Music Awards.

Mr. Lambert is free to do as he pleases in his personal life, of course. But I wonder why he didn't display who he truly is when he competed on American Idol. I'm sure it's because he knows that most Americans don't favor his lifestyle and would have voted him off the show. So his deceit gained him a victory and a free pass into America's living rooms during prime time. No wonder Americans are tired of what they like and believe in being taken from them by some who claim to be shocked when we protest.
