What?  Would you like to explain the fascist nature of blue collar people
from families, workplaces or communities where military service is
commonplace, being disgusted with Bush personally for all the useless death
of this adventure?  What elements of corporatism or
nature-as-family/leader-as-father ideology can be identified from
an anecdote about ex-military people who work restoring old arms for
museums feeling disdain for Bush?
