American Mugabe (Piece on *)

[The Count]

So call him American Mugabe.

And what is more, he knows it, too. Americans may be fooled (by him), but this president knew exactly what he came to Washington to do, and exactly what would happen if he got caught at his pillaging of the commonweal.

Anyone who thinks the latest scandal concerning the firing of the US Attorneys is some random anomaly of some sort hasn’t been paying attention. It is perfectly of a piece with everything this administration has done since coming to office.

Before they had even located the men’s room of their new office suites, they had already withdrawn the United States from the International Criminal Court treaty. Not content with that, they then began hammering vulnerable countries throughout the world to exempt Americans within their borders from jurisdiction of the Court, using extortion racket techniques any two-bit thug from Brooklyn would find painfully familiar. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article17467.htm
