The Watergate-famous reporter duo of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein spoke where I am at, in Odessa, Texas, at The University of Texas of the Permian Basin last night and, 20 miles from his birthplace of Midland, did not hesitate to critique George W. Bush’s legacy.
Of course, the cynic in me asks why didn’t Woodward say some of this five years ago instead of continuing to angle for more Bush Administration “access” to write his next book? (In fact, during their forum, Bernstein was more critical of Bush than Woodward.)
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
