'How to Lose a War:'

<<snip>>

This is an administration that will let its special
interests — particularly its high-rolling campaign
contributors and its
noisiest theocrats of the right — have veto power over
public safety, public health and economic prudence in
war, it
turns out, no less than in peacetime. When anthrax
struck, the administration's first impulse was not to
secure as
much Cipro as speedily as possible to protect
Americans, but to protect the right of pharmaceutical
companies to
profiteer. The White House's faith in tax cuts as a
panacea for all national ills has led to such
absurdities as this
week's House "stimulus" package showering $254 million
on Enron, the reeling Houston energy company (now
under
S.E.C. investigation) that has served as a Bush
campaign cash machine. >>
