How can anyone support this guy?

Public forums are no place for Bush's thought police

He's not just a bad president. He's an unamerican president. Civilized (and sometimes not so) discourse are what the founding of America was about. The president doesn't want discourse. He wants to preach to the faithful. That's fine, resign and become a minister, but if your gonna use my money to try and bamboozle people about Social Security, you had better let me in the door.

As Josh Marshall points out at the end of his article:

So, as I said, let’s face facts. This is White House policy — to ban American citizens from taxpayer-funded public forums on the basis of their political beliefs.

They’re doing it because they think they can get away with it.

Which makes sense — because so far they have.
