Nothing to fear but fear itself

I was on the hopper reading the 40th anniversary issue of the future Mrs. Gekko's Rolling Stone (I have to pass the qualifier since I would never buy a Rolling Stone).

In the edition, there are a number of politics articles from such luminaries as Al Gore, Bill Maher, George Clooney, etc. about politics today.

Each and every one of them talk about the Bush Administration's constant use of fear to manipulate the public. Yet within the same paragraphs, they speak of fearing the Bush Administration itself.

Another classic case of liberal psychological projection.
