BuzzFlash Editorial: Darkness at Noon for Democracy


This BuzzFlash editorial is a hard hitting indictment on the Bush presidency. Too bad Bush will probably never see it. He and Cheney need a reality check.

BuzzFlash Editorial: Darkness at Noon for Democracy

Ideology doesn't matter.

You are a tyrannical thug whether you are Joseph Stalin, Benito Mussolini, or Francisco Franco.
And Cheney and his Puppet Bush are thugs in that infamous tradition.

People who are utter failures in executing policy often rise to power because they are experts at brutally seizing power and silencing dissent. It is the law of the political jungle. Kill off dissent -- and no one can expose your wretched failures.

Democrats on the Hill who still harbor an idea that what is going on is about an alleged "war on terrorism" or fight for liberty or "victory" in Iraq are in need of a new prescription for their glasses.

This is a about the raw, ruthless seizure of power and the machineries of state by one radical faction within a democracy.

And that radical faction has as one of its major goals the elimination of democracy.
Sure, they mouth platitudes about the glories of the homeland, as Hitler did. But take the Holocaust away from the history of the Third Reich and tell us, honestly, if you think the Busheviks are headed in a different direction?
