Bloggers v. McCain-Feingold

An interesting post by Richard Poe. Unfortunately, Mr. Poe refuses to acknowledge the responsibility of George W. Bush for this, as HE WAS THE ONE WHO SIGNED MCCAIN-FEINGOLD.

But of course, Richard Poe can never, ever criticize President Bush.

Look at his original post criticizing the Supreme court for upholding McCain-Feingold. Note the total absence of criticism for Bush.

Anyone who read much of his blog in the weeks up to the election knows that he refused to say anything bad in any way about Dubya. And he hasn't seemed to change at all now that Bush is eleceted and in fact wants to continue the dynasty by electing his brother.

Considering that his undying loyalty to El Presidente, his call to liberal bloggers to renounce Hillary Clinton and George Soros seems rather hypocritical. And of course, he sees Clinton and Soros as the source of all this evil, rather than seeing them as one tentacle of the statist octopus, which consists of all people who see the government's role as to shape society. His concentration on Soros and Clinton, in my opinion, distracts us from the real issue, which is the cancerous nature of governments in general.

I think Henry David Thoreau had something to say about this.

That is all.
