In the aftermath of 9/11, the country was united like never before.

It was years later, when the Iraq war became unpopular, that the country became divided. The media and the democrats were so heavily invested in the notion that Iraq was lost, they all blew a collective gasket when the Surge worked. They all came down with Bush Derangement Syndrome, and concluded that if they couldn't win the battle of ideas, they could win the battle of identity politics and victimhood.
