What kind of man is Bush? (Great piece Malloy read on air last night)
This was written by a veteran:

When I think of Bush, I do not think of liberty and courage, compassion and justice. No, I think of arrogance, greed and lies. He is a thug, a buffoon and a coward. Not only is he incompetent, he is corrupt.

He is of a kind with the dictators; a strutting, sanctimonious buffoon who talks democracy but acts like Saddam Hussein. Bush might differ in degree from Hussein, not having been in power as long, but in behavior, with torture and the corruption of government, they are of a kind.

While al-Qaida is an enemy of the values and principles of the United States and Western civilization and must be confronted, it can do no more than kill people and destroy property.

Bush can subvert our principles and institutions. He is the greater enemy.

2. Courageous writing by Mr. Abbott
Heartfelt thanks to Mr. Abbott for the courage to write and have this published. The day after this was published, his phones were probably wiretapped by the chickenhawks.
