Overwhelming support from liberal democrats for Gitmo, indefinite detention, process-free assassination of US citizens, drone attacks, and more? Mission fucking accomplished. I said before the election that Mr. Obama's primary task would be to embrace and extend the Bush legacy, and, wretchedly, I was exactly right.

Democrats, every single one of you owes Mr. Bush and the GOP a massive apology for every. single. lie. you. told. about caring about any of this whatsoever. I sure hope you enjoy your imperial police state, because that's what you want, and that's what you've got. Congratulations.

(You also owe every one of us who threw ourselves in front of that buzzsaw an apology too, but fuck, if I don't know better by now, I never will.)

Sadly, public opinion seems to operate on a tribal basis. If "our" guy does it, it must be right. (I'm not clear if it was ever otherwise; that might've been before my time.)
