US middle east policy: "...a blood soaked failure"! The Israeli attack on Lebanon has knocked Iraq off the front pages but it doesn't help Bush. Instead of distracting Americans, the spreading chaos is Bush's new tar baby.

How George Bush Became a Dictator John Dean makes this chilling point: Nixon, he says, toyed with the idea of defying the high court, but, in the end resigned. Bush/Cheney won't budge. They have already declared that whatever may be alleged against them, they can, themselves "authorize" it. Bush has assumed the power to interpret the Supreme Court and, in a crisis, he will defy the court. The American republic is over.

Israel Commits War Crimes in Lebanon Is Bush using the Israeli bombardment of Lebanon to divide the so-called "progressive" movement in the US? If so, he will have also provided some "cover" for Israeli war crimes in Lebanon and his own in Iraq.

How American conservatives became dangerous radicals The modern American conservative movement has departed radically from an original vision of Barry Goldwater. The roots of this radicalization are found in ruthlessness and power for its own sake.

Bush plays politics with human life Though Bush has presided over the deaths of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians, he vetos the best hope of saving millions of Americans from an early death. This is unconscionable and evil but to be expected from the increasingly radical, extremist GOP.

Israel and Lebanon: How Bush lost his mojo Having given tacit approval to an "over-reaction" by Ehud Olmert, the Bush administration compromises its traditional role of "honest broker". Without dialoague or leverage, Bush is not only out of the loop, he may even be on the wrong side.

The Rumsfeld Doctrine: Easy Victories on the Cheap! According to the Globe and Mail, Masked Shia gunmen stopped cars in western Baghdad, grabbed people off the streets, singled out the Sunni Arabs among them and then killed some 37 of them. Several weeks since the Bush celebrated the death of Zarqawi, it is clear: the US is involved in a civil war in Iraq.

A Declaration of our Independence Patriotism is not mindless flag waving. The "Patriots" who found this nation wagered their very lives on a some basic concepts that the Bush administration now threatens from within.

The GOP tries to let Bush off the hook, to make legal crimes he's already committed! Every time Bush is caught breaking the law, the GOP moves to make his crime "legal". It's a neat but dangerous trick, which, in fact, subverts the rule of law.

Deflating Big Brother by Debunking Right Wing Lies, Myths, and Propaganda I've never understood how the Religious Right manages it. How can followers of the "Prince of Peace" support the cold-blooded murder of innocent civilians in a war of naked aggression?

How America lost its moral authority throughout the world The Bush administration had planned to perpetrate torture even before it ordered the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq; and it sought to exempt U.S. troops from international prosecutions. In the process, the United States has lost whatever moral authority it might have exerted throughout the world.

Bush is killing and torturing innocent people because he has neurotic, personal problems with "Daddy" Bush had planned to attack and invade Iraq even before the election of 2000. It didn't matter that Iraq didn't have "weapons of mass destruction". Bush had a score to settle. With "Daddy".

Forget the Iraq civil war; the U.S. cultural war rages on Recent back to back outrages by Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly remind one Pat Buchanan who declared war on a majority of Americans back in 1992. He called it a "cultural war". It's been raging ever since.

You know you're living in a dictatorship when public opinion becomes irrelevant When Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said recently that journalists could be prosecuted for espionage, it was clear that an official crackdown on truth telling is one of several defining characteristics of a police state. There is yet another equally reliable sign of dictatorship: public opinion doesn't mean a thing!

The Method and the Madness of King George For the first time in American history, armed federal agents of the executive branch of the government executed a raid on Congress and spent hours "rifling through papers" and removing materials that they alone deemed necessary to an investigation. Is this just a part of Bush's mad plan?

Why George W. Bush's regime is Anti-American Bush is on the wrong side of America's very founding, the wrong side of American history. He's at the other end of the scale with J.S. Mill, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison on the one end —Hegel, Hitler and Stalin on the other.

Bush's biggest fraud: the phony war on terrorism! Until recently, George W. Bush could bludgeon dissenters with the issue of terrorism. But as "terrorism" becomes another issue on which Bush is taking a beating in the polls, an increasing number of writers and readers are questioning the very nature of Bush's perpetual war.

How George Bush Stole Christmas and Lost Camelot! The election of Ronald Reagan ushered in a dark age of high unemployment, job outsourcing, huge federal debts and deficits, the doubling of the Federal Bureaucracy. A tentative recovery under an imperfect Democratic President has been undone by Bush. Can America find its way back?
