Educating the Presidunce, Neocon Style
The neocon grip on the White House has not lessened, despite the manifest failures of the Iraq debacle that should have consigned them to obscurity. Glenn Greenwald reports on a recent luncheon at the White House with Andrew Roberts, neocon luminary and author of "History of English-Speaking Peoples Since 1900." This was the "history" book that Dead Eye was seen lugging around on his recent foreign tour.
The report shows a chilling manipulation of the Presidunce by a group of committed ideologues, whose aim is never-ending war in the Middle East to spread "democracy." To realize that Bushie is still listening to these charlatans is deeply disturbing, but not surprising.
