Fear and Loathing on the Internets (by Glenn Greenwald and James Wolcott).

A quickie link for something I've seen with lots of people - they've turned Bush into object of idolation or worship, as sort of a crusader against evil -- so much so as he gets a free pass for doing things that they would decry in anyone else -- like say in a hypothetical Hillary Clinton administration. But if you try to argue this point, or even if you just bring up the point that Bush is not all right, you get called traitorous.

Glenn Greenwald wonders why.

So did James Wolcott.
