Exactly right. No difference between right and left when it comes to totalitarism. Bush joked recently his life would be easier if he could just be a dictator. Unfortunately, when he took power with Cheney (despite losing the popular vote and having no mandate) he treated the system as if he were the dictator. That is why Jeffords bolted. Now we have a big struggle to re-balance power. Bush will end up losing but in the meantime it's very costly for our country. The surplus is being given away to the rich and Energy Cartel, and the environment is under attack by the very people who make money polluting it and resist all positive change. Those men sit right behind the frontman for their interests named GW Bush, though I think Cheney is more in charge, he and the Bush handlers. With an IQ of 91 I don't believe GW thought this energy price manipulation strategy up himself. But I'm sure he agreed with it once it was presented to him. Remember GW owes everything to the Oil Patch big wigs and people like James Baker and Cheney have a lot of control over him. They are the real villains, both energy CEO's who take care of their friends first.

You insist on muddying the waters. You refuse to differentiate government form and economic system. That's why you keep getting the wrong answers.

A right winger can favor an autocratic government or a democracy.
A left winger can favor an autocratic government or a democracy.

Come back when you have this straight.

Next.
