"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Do the Neo-Cons Need Karl Rove When They Can Count on the Democrats?
"Karl Rove scoots off the sunken White House ship with his plans for future neo-con dominance safe and secure?in the hands of Democrats unwilling or incapable of challenging his dirtiest deeds. Elected to end a lunatic war, the Democratic Congress has prolonged it, earning approval ratings even lower than those of George W. Bush, whom Rove designated as a 'war president' long before the attack on Iraq . The Democrats have also signed off on the GOP's all-out assault on the Constitution, meekly certifying a 'unitary executive' with totalitarian demands for a blanket suspension of civil liberties, arbitrary detention, official torture and more." After all, the Constitution and civil liberties would prove quite inconvenient when they assume the reigns of power once again.
