It isn’t just Bush’s tyranny, though that has contributed. But for decades America has been sinking into the cesspool of a police state.

I’ve been ridiculing Rush Limbaugh’s Operation Chaos as Operation KAOS, after the enemy secret agency on “Get Smart.”
Rush’s Operation KAOS urged Republicans to vote for Hillary in the later primaries, thus delaying Obama’s victory and prolonging the campaign. Except that, as I pointed out, it gave [...]
