Brent Budowsky: George Washington, George III, George Bush: If Thomas Paine Were Here, Part 1 | BuzzFlash

Never before in the history of the Republic have the politics of fear been used so ignobly to put our freedoms under basic attack. Never before in the history of the Republic have those freedoms been surrendered so casually, so fearfully, so timidly. and so meekly by a society that so easily forgets about the rivers of blood of American heroes who died to give us what we so casually, so fearfully, so timidly and so meekly surrender today.

A long read but a good one.  I really like the writings of Brent Budowsky and will post more as he continues to write.  Jerri
