For every article criticising Shrub these days, there seem to be a shedload pointing out how hes not a bad man, he's not stupid and in fact he's probably God's gift to the planet.

Doesn't convince anybody outside the US.

This guy and his controllers are the most dangerous force to be seen in world politics for a long, long time. Inside a few years, he's managed to turn his biggest failure (Sept. 11th) into a 'crusade', all the time wrapping the American people in Old Glory - anything can be justified in the US these days as long as it's 'patriotic'. It's as worrying as hell to anyone who doesn't take the oath to the the stars and stripes every day, so that counts most of the world's population.

I'm glad to see that there are still US citizens that know what the score is, they see that US democracy is now being buried beneath a tidal wave of 'patriotism' and draconian laws. I'm a bit pissed that the loudest voices on the subject seem to be the neocons and chickenhawks, but there you go, that's democracy for you, even these idiots get to attempt censorship when their puppet is in the white house.

To Ian Wood, do you really think that people so corrupt and morally bankrupt should be left in charge until 2008? Are you serious? ONLY 2008? You have no clue, really, do you? Take your head out of your hamburger for a few minutes and look around at the other 4/5ths of the world....I don't think they agree with you...
