A Reputation in Tatters
George W. Bush and his gang of neocon warmongers have destroyed America’s reputation. It is likely to stay destroyed, because at this point the only way to restore America’s reputation would be to impeach and convict President Bush for intentionally deceiving Congress and the American people in order to start a war of aggression against a country that posed no threat to the United States.
America can redeem itself only by holding Bush accountable.
As intent as Republicans were to impeach President Bill Clinton for lying about a sexual affair, they have a blind eye for President Bush’s far more serious lies. Bush’s lies have caused the deaths of tens of thousands of people, injured and maimed tens of thousands more, devastated a country, destroyed America’s reputation, caused 1 billion Muslims to hate America, ruined our alliances with Europe, created a police state at home, and squandered $300 billion dollars and counting.
America’s reputation is so damaged that not even our puppets can stand the heat. Anti-American riots, which have left Afghan cities and towns in flames and hospitals overflowing with casualties, have forced Bush’s Afghan puppet, “President” Hamid Karzai, to assert his independence from his U.S. overlords. In a belated act of sovereignty, Karzai asserted authority over heavy-handed U.S. troops whose brutal and stupid ways sparked the devastating riots. Karzai demanded control of U.S. military activities in Afghanistan and called for the return of the Afghan detainees who are being held at the U.S. prison in Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.
Abundant evidence now exists in the public domain to convict George W. Bush of the crime of the century. The secret British government memo (dated July 23, 2002, and available here), leaked to the Sunday Times (which printed it on May 1, 2005), reports that Bush wanted “to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. . . . But the case was thin. Saddam was not threatening his neighbors, and his WMD capability was less than that of Libya, North Korea or Iran. . . . The (United Kingdom) attorney general said that the desire for regime change was not a legal base for military action. There were three possible legal bases: self-defense, humanitarian intervention or UNSC (U.N. Security Council) authorization. The first and second could not be the base in this case. Relying on UNSCR 1205 of three years ago would be difficult.”
This memo is the mother of all smoking guns. Why isn’t Bush in the dock?
Has American democracy failed at home?

Muslims never hated America until Bush became President. Everybody knows that.
IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!
"Muslims hated the US since the days of Jimmy Carter."
Longer than that. Since Oct, 1973.
Mr. Roberts could be referring to himself here.
His column used to be in the Washington Times and I read him after 9/11 but was struck by the unrelenting negativity. It got so bad that I just stopped reading him and I don't believe the Times runs his columns anymore or if he's widely syndicated. I sense he's a nuttier version of John McLaughlin and Pat Buchanan--conservatives who jumped the shark.
I was surprised to see him posted on this site and how far he's come from even when I was reading him.
That's all I know.
So what's his problem?
Somebody drank a full pitcher of Kool-aid.
When did Paul Craig Roberts turn into a girly-man?
Crystal Meth, would be my guess.
This claptrap is written by a senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution ?
Is that a local high school ?
Is he angry that he's been cut out of the loop?
Something must have triggered this craziness.
And yet no one has proposed Articles of Impeachment. Perhaps the 'abundant evidence' does not actually support what Mr. Roberts imagines.
Well. Maybe he will run for Congress in 2006, write the Articles himself and garner sufficient support to move the process forward.
This moronic pinhead doesn't explain why the "over 1 billion sold" fanatical muslims hated us PRIOR to the Iraq war. Must be the heat.
The man seems to be quoting the DU Mantra! "Impeach Bush" Must be hanging out there too long!
PC Roberts is a "Paleolibertarian."
What planet has this doofus been on?
The only time "the world" does not hate the USA is when we have linguini spined cowards such as carter or clinton in the oval office. Then they just laugh at the USA.
What this intelectual midget is really trying to say is that Bush has humiliated and trashed the hopes the LEFT had of making the usa the ussa. What has this example of mono cellular brain power bunched his undies in a bind is that the demonstrated STRENGTH of the USA as lead by GWBush had by contrast shown how IMPOTENT and ineffective any leadership by democrats continues to produce.
This fine upstanding example of cranial to rectal insertion has no interest in solutions, he only wants to claim the perpetual problem. The same perpetual carter-esque USA -USSR negotiations which keep the elites of perversion in perpetual ponderance of their belly buttons.
If anything this nurological short circuit has failed to see that an IMPEACHMENT CONVICTION HAS BEEN PASSED JUDGMENT by the voters. For OVER TWENTY years the democrat party has been subject to enforcemnt of that conviction and they have been suffering the electoral execution by 1000 votes. The democrat ('gay') party has been removed vote by vote, office by office by the citizens.
The citizens are the ultimate judge, jury and executioner of all political careers.
Perhaps this author should go back to woodstock where he can sit naked in the mud, smoke more pot, do more illegal drugs, listen to more badly played music, and hope the adults are kind enough to mercifully bring him something to eat.
(too strong?)
There WAS a campaign to get germans to "like us", it was lead by Nevil Chamberlin.
". . in matters of foreign policy paleoconservatives actually share much in common with the American left . ."

Yes.
And I don't know.
