The other day I wrote a blog on “Reassessing George W. Bush.” And I received a serious comment from a Bush supporter.
Usually the comments are vituperation, insults, invitations to accept Jesus, fervent declarations of Christian Love, simple denials implying my brain is missing, long dissertations on religious beliefs, inarticulate defense of Bush actions, indignation at my “treasonous” criticism, or assertions that I am helping the (…)

In Ramadi, 6 bodies were found two days ago, bound and gagged and dead. BUT...the good news is that they hadn’t been tortured!

A Very British Coup?

2 comments"If there were ever an excuse for a Very British Coup to take place to remove the dishonest NeoCon puppets who, like Doctor Who’s aliens, have colonised the British Executive then surely it is now.
