: Slow Motion Coup: Road to Recovery

Daily Kos: Slow Motion Coup: Road to Recovery:

"Tom Friedman is now more trustful of Iranian mullahs with nuclear weapons than he is of empowering Bu$hCo. to do anything to try to stop them. Collectively, these new developments display a kind of common wisdom within the foreign policy establishment that the Bush presidency is fatally flawed and must not be allowed to finish out its term in its present form. The revolt of the generals is another piece, coming from the Pentagon, while Tyler Drumheller, Mary McCarthy, the NSA leakers and others are taking on this administration from the within the intelligence community. We are witnessing a slow-motion coup...a kind of assassination by a thousand cuts. But, it is not really coordinated. And no one is quite sure how to proceed, or what steps to take. Some think Bush can survive by shit-canning Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Rove. Others think such actions will just precipitate his demise. The Establishment is like an alcoholic suffering through the early stages of recovery. Collectively, they are midway through the process (between steps three and four)" "
