"There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and
violent extremists at home. But in their disdain for
pluralism, disregard for human life, in their determination to defile
national symbols they are children of the same foul spirit and it is our
continuing duty to confront them." -- former President George W. Bush today at Shanksville, PA, breaking a too- long silence about right- wing domestic terrorists, some of whom are now seen as "political prisoners" by leaders in his rotted out Republican Party. We'll refrain from further comment about what role he, his family and his administration have played in getting us to this point. But, a stopped clock and all that.
