Res ipsa loquitur

Res ipsa loquitur is Latin and literally means the thing speaks for itself.  And when placed in the context of presidential campaign the incumbent’s record does just that – it speaks for itself.  Recently, in a Victor David Hanson op-ed, the conservative writer asks a question that should be on the minds of all clear-thinking Americans  – is American culture collapsing?  Because whether its politics, the economy, education, social life, popular culture, foreign policy, or the military the signs are readily apparent that it is.
