They're All Clueless
Even Atrios:
For these people, it's all about power and the wealth-tapping, so to speak, that comes with it. America means NOTHING to them other than that. That's why they can steal elections without inhibition. It's why a radical right Justice of the Supreme Court can write a decision saying that the decision is legally wrong but they're making it because it's the decision they want to make.
But for a matter of degree, they are like the Nazis in the early 1930s: Democracy is merely a means to an end -- accumulation of absolute power -- and once the end is met, there is no longer than any need for anything democratice. Democracy goes, the police state comes.
These guys are little different.
How any true conservative can support people like this eludes me. There is nothing conservative about this administration. They are radical destroyers of democracy and our freedoms.
And, unfortunately, destroyers of our security as well. But that's a rant for another day....

Dick Cheney hates this country:
WASHINGTON, May 12 — In the weeks after the Sept. 11 attacks, Vice President Dick Cheney and his top legal adviser argued that the National Security Agency should intercept purely domestic telephone calls and e-mail messages without warrants in the hunt for terrorists, according to two senior intelligence officials.
