Arrogance

I was watching C-Span 3 last night (Shh! Don't tell anyone!) and there was a panel discussion. Included were three media folks, political correspondents/analysts, and two of JFK's advisers. I enjoyed the panel, until....

Some of the insider stories were good ones, funny, insightful, etc. Then, each of them, to a man, exhibited their arrogance, that they are smarter than everyone else, that they know what's best, that their ideas, not those of others, are the right ones. It was very disconcerting, disappointing. So much so, that I turned off the channel, the whole tube.

They made fun of, mocked today's voters, those who exhibited their displeasure with how gov't is being run. And these guys, part of the establishment, have no idea that what they were part of has fouled things up so. They are, not the solution, but the problem--and they are so arrogant they don't even know it.
