[quote="R. S. Refugee"]Me too. I really love that slapdash, devil-may-care daring aviator guy, commander-in-thief and all. If we only had a lot more like him, then we'd have a lot more like him. And I mean that very sincerely.

I'm somewhat amazed by how the brilliance of this OP title eluded me before. But, now that I think of it, the obvious brillance is overwhelming and the only thing we pathetic little bleeding heart liberals can offer is . . .

en Ways Bush Resembles History's Tyrantsby Sherwood Ross

did you get this from counterpunch?

Quote:

irst, tyrants tend to see themselves, as Hitler did, at the head of some kind of "master race." President Bush and his backers would deny it, but their drive for a "New American Century" betrays them. They're world-beaters, and won't sign the global warming treaty or any other cooperative document. Republicans at their last Convention jeered the very mention of the words "United Nations." Those who see it differently get slandered. Recall how Bush's hatchet men impugned Senator Kerry's Vietnam War record. This was reminiscent of Nazi claims Germany's Jewish veterans of the Great War did not deserve their medals. Another manifestation is Neocons would reduce gay and lesbian Americans to second-class citizenship status. Bush's backers are convinced of their superiority at home and globally.

No , not better than others however Bathists , Khomenist and Al Qadists who are evil.

Futhermore the UN is selective and corrupt why ought the US trust in something that is selective and corrupt.

Most neo cons have no opinion on someone's sexual preference, they care about political preferences.

The project for a New American Century says the US ought to try to be in the best situation possible and ought not make unilateral concessions just to be popular . Don't like it tough.

Most nations do the same thing.

Quote:

Second, tyrants tend to be congenital, brazen liars. [/b][/size]Bush lied about Iraq's threat to America just as Hitler lied when he claimed Poland attacked Germany first in 1939. The UN told Bush there was no WMD in Iraq, yet Bush said there was and made war. He knew better. As many as 600,000 Iraqi civilians are dead, 2-million have fled, and a nation is being destroyed before our eyes.

the UN never told the US that Saddam had no WMDS.

Saddam was not in compliance anyway.

The UN was on Saddam's payroll and the only reason that Saddam was contained was cause of the US - not the UN.

Quote:

]Fourth, tyrants will use a "crisis" to grab total power.[/b] [/size]After the massacre of 9/11, President Bush pushed through the Patriot Act. Recall 1933, when Hitler declared a "state of national emergency" after the Reichstag (Parliament) fire, which likely was set by the Nazis. The new law gives Bush the power to arrest any American citizen on his say-so and he has allowed his intelligence agencies to spy illegally on American citizens without a court order.

the US is at war the Patriot act isn't anything extreme.

There has been no power grap see that the Democrats were successful in the last election.

The wire taps are not illegal anyway.

Fifth, tyrants torture. [/b

Quote:

] Of all people, Bush picked Alberto Gonzalez for the top legal position in the nation, the very man who rationalized the torture of captives. Bush also lavishes billions on dictatorships such as Egypt, whose Gestapo obligingly tortures individuals the CIA kidnaps from other countries. Bush has turned back the clock of history to the Spanish Inquisition.

Egypt is one of the more tolerant nations in the mideast.

Quote:

[b]Sixth, tyrants tend to make serial wars. Soviet Russia's Stalin attacked Finland, Poland, and Hungary. Japan struck Korea, Manchuria, China, America, and U.K. One war is never enough for a tyrant. Recall Napoleon invaded nations to liberate them from kings, only to put his relatives on their thrones. Having invaded Afghanistan and setting Iraq ablaze, Bush now threatens Iran --- three countries that are oil-rich or geographically sited for oil transmission lines or both.

In fact the Bathists , Khomenists and Al Qaedaists never gave up their war.

Let them give up their war. If they don't want to give up their war then anything the US does to force them to is probably ok.

Huge difference.

Quote:

Seventh, tyrants are notorious for their closed mindedness. They ignore their critics. Japan walked out of the League of Nations rather than answer for its conduct. Bush doesn't listen to critics, either. The Pope denounced America's war on Iraq as immoral. The UN Secretary-General called it "illegal." Millions the world over protested it. And a majority of Americans call it wrong but Bush ignores them. Polls show 70% of the Iraqi people want the U.S. to get out but Bush refuses.

Most of the Iraqis voted for the Iraqi government who doesn't want the US to leave.

Quote:

The UN Secretary-General called it "illegal.

His son was on Saddam's payroll.

By the way when does the left care about the opinions of religious leaders.

The pope said condoms are wrong too.

Quote:

Eighth, tyrants spend lavishly on the military. In the Thirties, Germany, Japan and Soviet Russia devoted a high percentage of their gross national product to their war machines. Today, America spends more on armaments than all other nations combined. And America under Bush is the Number One arms merchant in the world.

The US spends no more than 4- 5 % of its GDP on its miltary the enemies spend far more and half of the US military budget is a social program.

Quote:

Ninth, tyrants don't respect the sovereignty of other nations. Bush rationalized his attack on Iraq as "preventive war" -- a euphemism for "aggression." The Pentagon has already dropped troops secretly into Iran, according to Seymour Hersh in "The New Yorker." The Pentagon operates 700 military bases in 130 countries and refuses to leave Okinawa and Greenland despite protests from their citizens.

IF the US had respected Iraq's soverignty then Saddam would have killed off the kurds once and for all.

By the way there would have been no war if Saddam had respected the Sovereignty of other nations.

Most of the nations with US bases want the US to be there.

Tell the author to respect the sovereignty of other nations

Quote:

Tenth, tyrants have double standards. Bush declares he's for "freedom" but forges alliances with the heads of Saudi Arabia, and former Soviet Asian republics where citizens have zero rights.

According to the observer human rights index the enemies of the US have worse human rights records than the Asian republics and in fact Saddams Iraq was arguably the worst in the whole world.

Quote:

He warns Iran against making a nuclear bomb

that is cause Iran wants it for a sinister purpose.

Quote:

while he scraps non-proliferation treaties to make America's nuclear arsenal more lethal

.


Actually the US is still in the stupid NPT

Quote:

Bush threatens Iran,

Cause Iran threatens others

Quote:

which spends $4-billion a year on arms,

That figure doesn't include the revolutionary guard or any business they are in. The real number for Iran is considerably higher.

Quote:

while he spends $500-billion on arms.

a lot of that is social spending

Quote:

He warns Iran might make a nuclear bomb while he has 10,000.

what does iran want them for? is the question.

India has more nukes than North Korea which is worse?

Quote:

He accused Saddam Hussein of germ warfare capability while he has been secretly building the greatest germ warfare capability of any nation in history since the Soviet Union under Stalin.

Oh prove it.

In fact US has does have a biological weapons program but it is not to kill people but to destroy equipment.

Quote:

Are these reasons grounds for impeachment?

NO

Quote:

Not if you believe this is the New American Century

.

that the US ought not make unilateral concessions , and that the US ought not put its security in the hands of a corrupt and selective organization like the UN.

Quote:

Not if you believe Americans are the Master Race.

Americans are not the master race but Bathist , Khomenists and Al Qadists are all fascist bigots.

Quote:

Not if you believe America should rule the world.

No but the US doesn't need to surrender either .

You are a really, really, really stupid person. The points you raise are both worrying and infuriating.................what do you mean with your comments about muslims? Can you not distinguish between fundementalists and normal people who have a right to practice their religion peacefully. You are a bigot and a racist, be ashamed of yourself as your an embarrassment to society. What a waste of sperm....................................
