Bushwacked

According to bestselling political commentator Molly Ivins, America has been "Bushwhacked" by a president who has applied the same flawed strategies he used in governing Texas to running the largest superpower in the world. Ivins examines Bush's record in Texas and nationally to show how his economic policies devastated the Texas budget and now threaten the same for America, how he has waged war on terrorism by means of unprecedented challenges to our civil liberties, adn how he has decimated the gains the country has made in environmental protections, health and safety standards, adn foreign relations. In focusing attention on the 9/11 attacks, we have been distracted from the deterioration of American life and other threats of greater magnitude.
