FWIW.

I only add this because Cusack is an ardent Leftist. He supported Obama (naturally) in the last two elections. Now he has buyer's remorse like so many others. Still he takes the time to diss Bush/Cheney.

"Actor John Cusack argued Wednesday that President Obama is “as bad or worse” than former President George W. Bush for his policies concerning drones, the NSA, and an open and free press.

In an interview published Wednesday, the “Love & Mercy” actor was asked by The Daily Beast what he thought about a recent CNN poll that said Mr. Bush is now polling higher than Mr. Obama.

“Well, Obama has certainly extended and hardened the cement on a lot of Bush’s post-9/11 Terror, Inc. policies, so he’s very similar to Bush in every way that way,” Mr. Cusack said.

“His domestic policy is a bit different, but when you talk about drones, the American Empire, the NSA, civil liberties, attacks on journalism and whistleblowers, he’s as bad or worse than Bush,” he continued. “He hasn’t started as many wars, but he’s extended the ones we had, and I don’t even think Dick Cheney or Richard Nixon would say the president has the right to unilaterally decide whom he can kill around the world. On Tuesdays, the president can just decide whom he wants to kill, and you know, since 9/11 there are magic words like “terror,” and if you use magic words, you can justify any power grab you want.”

Really, John? And, you just now figured this out? After helping get him elected, not once, but twice?

I had to delete part of my sentence and replace it with "him".
