  •  Don't forget to read the LA Times' (4.00 / 3)

    scathing editorial opposite the op-ed piece!

    A glimpse of the language:

    "But according to numerous dissenter accounts, the Bush commissars strove not only to stifle competing policy proposals but also nettlesome facts and analysis that did not support the administration's ideological proclivities. Those whose loyalty was deemed suspect were reportedly isolated or pushed out.

    In such a Soviet-style atmosphere of political correctness, is it any wonder that the bureaucracies under Bush began to tailor their reports to what they knew their masters wanted to hear?"

    "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." (T. Paine)
