"I do not write the headlines for my columns. Someone else does. But if I were to write the headline for this one, it would be 'Impeach George Bush.'"
Richard Cohen 10-28-2004
btw, this man is more constant than Friedman, more measured than Krugman, I have not read a mean spirited column and his writing his often is rich with the words and events of history.
He does not say this, but from events just in our time, each society, no matter how governed, has within it seeds of violence: Hutus, Germans, Israelis, Serbs, Indonesians, Asian Indians, Italians, Greeks, Turks... Americans, we had our turn, with Negroes, with Native Americans, can be called out by the leader of the moment: we turn to murder.
Bush is one of those leaders. Powerful, rational people are swept up in it.
