WHERE DID THIS HAPPEN?

American Experience; Woody Wilson Saga II I watched this Friday.  As much as I like American history, Woody Wilson has always disinterested me.  I think because, growing up, all the WW1 movies were sepia toned, full of mud, and nightmarish. WWII movies were like John Wayne. Plus, I saw  Woodrow Wilson's place in history as one of failure. His League of Nations plan, thankfully stopped by a resurgent GOP congress, was a predictable boondoggle (see United Nations).   Also, after Wilson had a stroke his wife Edith became, quite illegally, the defacto President.  And things went to hell. Now, I post this only because I'm compelled to; not because I suspect anyone will waste part of their Sunday on it.  Which is too bad, because the nation under post war Wilson was in much the same predicament we find ourselves in today.  I mean, the United States was ripe for bloody rebellion and civil war. "Where Did This Happen?" The wife was washing/waxing the adjacent kitchen floor and listening to the dialog.  At one point she called in, "Where did this happen?  You get the point. Of course Wilson was a self-described "progressive."
