Bush & Blair: NeoSoviets

Quote of the Day:
Today, brandishing ideologies that appeal to domestic political audiences and intimidate everyone else, American and British leaders sound like Leonid Brezhnev...

By the standards of [Ronald] Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, our neoconservatives are not conservative, they are neosoviet. In the process, George Bush and Tony Blair are losing the so-called war on terror. Their policies backfire and play into the hands of Osama Bin Laden.
-S.J. Masty, former speechwriter to President Ronald Reagan
