Raymond > Hogwash. This is clearly not a matter of Left v. Right. It is a matter of authoritarianism vs. libertarianism.

I won't argue with you but you are the one who started talking about the "right". I merely wished to show you that your "right" was actually the "left"!

> I think this website does a terrific job of clearing up the confusion about Left vs. Right. That is entirely too simplistic a way to categorize what is more of a matrix of views, rather than a continuum of same.

It does. Thank you very much. My "spot" is almost in the middle, three little squares down on each axis towards the "Libertarian Left". Near to but not as far down as Mandela and the Dalai Lama.

> The Bushistas and the neo-cons in particular ascribe to the worldview that they know best how the world should be run, therefore they should run it and reap the reward. This is the profoundly anti-democratic message that they have for the world.

They are simply opportunists, thieves and liars dressed up in a cloak of academic and/or religious respectability. And they have been exposed --- of course, only to those who wish to see.
