You're Either With Him

Or your a pink-o!

Just about eveyone is linking to Glen Greenwald today, as they should. Glen takes a sentiment echoed by this website for some time...That Bush is a faux conservative..in fact, I called him a theorcratic-socialist in an effort to bridge the apparent paradox of his leadership being both overly authoritarian and at the same time, embracing of big goverment. Glen goes further...

Now, in order to be considered a "liberal," only one thing is required – a failure to pledge blind loyalty to George W. Bush. The minute one criticizes him is the minute that one becomes a "liberal," regardless of the ground on which the criticism is based. And the more one criticizes him, by definition, the more "liberal" one is. Whether one is a "liberal" -- or, for that matter, a "conservative" -- is now no longer a function of one’s actual political views, but is a function purely of one’s personal loyalty to George Bush.


Sadly, he's so right. At the moment we are facing the threat of a larger war with the Islamo-facists, Bush will leave the GOP broken and the Dems. are still looking for a direction. Scary..because what Glen says is so true.
