Hersh on Bush

Holy cow, you've got to read this: We've Been Taken Over by a Cult by New Yorker writer Seymour Hersh. Hersh recently made waves writing about U.S. plans to attack Iran; he's going farther, as he hints in that speech.

One of the ways -- one of the things that you could say is, the amazing thing is we are been taken over basically by a cult, eight or nine neo-conservatives have somehow grabbed the government. Just how and why and how they did it so efficiently, will have to wait for much later historians and better documentation than we have now, but they managed to overcome the bureaucracy and the Congress, and the press, with the greatest of ease. It does say something about how fragile our democracy is.
