QUADKITE

Aggressive lie-based war, torture, suspension of habeas corpus, flouting of Geneva Conventions, militaristic jingoism, signing statements negating legislation, contempt of congressional oversight, blanket state secrecy, warrantless wiretapping, propagandizing of official documents and policies, partisan infestation of all government agencies, corporate engorgement. I've left things out. -Neil Rogers

Cheney Starts New Cold War Over Oil

Mark Ames' essay is a lucid overview of what the Bush administration has been up to in Central Asia and former Soviet republics since 9/11. No, not fighting "terror" -- they've been working on a long-term oil grab by supporting dictators and gaming democratic elections in their favor, all while publicly bemoaning Russia's "slide" back to a dictatorship. Ames' lively writing style turns a heavy story into one of the best articles you'll read this month.
