According to Bill Bennett, we already are a dictatorship!
Bill Bennett is a right wing radio talk show host and just recently was signed onto CNN to do commentary. He is a very controversial man because of the things he says on air and on t.v. Well, this week was no different. Ole Bill is saying that the 'war on terror' was hurt when Pulitzer Prize winners published information about our secret prisons across the planet back along, and when they did that, Bush's secret surveillance program was exposed. Apparently, transparency is not good in a democracy! Bush tried to squash these stories to protect himself by contacting the newspapers prior to, but if I'm not mistaken, isn't that what dictators do? They control the media to protect their agenda? Bennett thinks that Bush has this right. Wow. It does make you wonder if Clinton was president today, if ole Bill would be insisting on protecting the president at all costs. I know he wouldn't be. For some reason, republicans of today feel that they have more rights than all previous Administrations combined and in their minds they feel they have earned it. Incredible. According to Bill Bennett, we are already a dictatorship and he is insisting that this is good.
