Well Ebbie ..Its getting late and Im getting tired ,but I find it naive in the extreme to trivialise the actions of the American Government,by blaming them exclusively on George Bush.Its clear that he is simply a mouthpiece for "business interests".
To people on the left in Britain the American political system seems very corrupt,and Im afraid you respect your politicians far too much.
In Britain a politician is last person we think trustworthy...Ake
