Blogorrhoea
on various subjects:
My Blog Hero, Tim Dunlop, is periodically obliged to resist
accusations that he just plain detests Dubya. I don’t. Resist the accusation, that is. I detest John
Howard, too. And Tony Blair. I think they’re murderers. I think the PNAC mob are wall-biting mad
idealogues, too. I think cosmetic democracy, economic crisis, corporatism, mercantilism, cultural
exceptionalism, lap- dog media, militarism, imperialism, expansionism and xenophobic paranoia all combine
to constitute a political system worthy of the tag ‘fascism’. I think the USA is currently on that road and
am left wondering what exits are left available to it. And us.
