Another Life-Long Republican and Former Bush Admin Official Warns US about Bush and the Neo-Cons and the Republican Led Congress

Lawrence Wilkerson, life-long Republican, retired Army Colonel and former chief of staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell, warns America about the dangers of allowing the Bush Administration to continue leading our nation down to disaster, “In January 2001, with the inauguration of George W. Bush as president, America set on a path to cease being good; America became a revolutionary nation, a radical republic. If our country continues on this path, it will cease to be great - as happened to all great powers before it, without exception.”

“From the Kyoto accords to the International Criminal Court, from torture and cruel and unusual treatment of prisoners to rendition of innocent civilians, from illegal domestic surveillance to lies about leaking, from energy ineptitude to denial of global warming, from cherry-picking intelligence to appointing a martinet and a tyrant to run the Defense Department, the Bush administration, in the name of fighting terrorism, has put America on the radical path to ruin.”

He warns that Bush and his like will set us back “800 years” to the days before the Magna Carta. His essay is required reading for all Americans.
