47. Nice non-answer
If there is one constant among the Dear Uncle Hugo set is the ol' "Yes, but look what the USA has done in the past!" as an explanantion as to why all things suspicious/controversial MUST be the USA's fault in the present.

THAT is a strawman.

I've asked if Obama is really a neocon puppet actively, consciously working for evil empires only to be told past is prologue to the present.

Obama?

An emperor (puppet)?

If that is the depth to which the Dear Uncle Hugo set must stoop to justify Dear Uncle Hugo's paranoia and power grabs I could only imagine what would be the excuse if Howard Dean was president (can zombie mind-control rays be far off?).

Please tell me why, after 9/11, the Patriot Act was far too invasive (and it is) but Dear Uncle Hugo is making every effort to stifle people from running charities and printing editorials which grow truer by the day?

And if you say the coup of years ago I will ask why, if Bush was an idiot for listening to "My Pet Goat" after being told of the 2nd plane crash then Dear Uncle Hugo must have waited all these years to hear-out the collected works of Tolstoy.

The fact is, he seizes more and more power so the people reject him and criticize him so his remedy is to seize more and more power.

It is the tell-tale of all dictators to claim they need just one more emergency power and all will be well. Until they need the next emergency power.

If it's good enough for Chavez it's good enough for Bush. Right?
