Sick in my stomach

What made me sick in my stomach during the Zimmerman fiasco was the gloating head of the prosecution after the verdict, self-congratulatory and delusional, talking about how she kept her promise to Trayvon's family to bring out the truth etc., how great American justice is etc., acting as if she'd just won the Super Bowl. All I could think of was what Mark Twain wrote in Puddn'head Wilson:
"It was wonderful to find America, but it would have been more wonderful to miss it."
