I fear George Bush. So does Seymour Hersh of the New Yorker Magazine. That's what he said on Hardball last night to Chris Matthews.
Newman, so much of America fears radical Islam, not W. It's sort of amazing.

While radical Islam is a long-term threat to the West, we are going about solving the problem the wrong way, and inflaming their ire. Iraq has been an unmitigated disaster, and has weakened our national security in so many ways (in addition to killing/wounding tens of thousands and costing hundreds of billions). Even WALTER CRONKITE, once the most trusted man in America, says so. Unfortunately, the 20-somethings in this country who back W don't remember THAT particular "W". Read Cronkite's views here...
