The Loyal Opposition

by Amer Jubran

03/22/05 “ICH” – – Against all odds, George W. Bush secured a victory in the US presidential elections in November, 2004. Bad news about the US economy, the military situation in Iraq, the greater-than- ever worldwide resentment of America, atrocious human rights abuses in Abu-Ghraib and Guantanamo, and the debut of the US as an emerging police state – all of that did not prevent Bush winning his second term in the White House. Bush was not even obliged to put on the usual campaign of deception empty promises to defeat his opponents. He spoke clearly and without reservation about going further to the right of his current agenda of murder for profit.
