Dixie Chicks, Valerie Plame & Bush
More than any recent President, George W. Bush has demonstrated an almost pathological hostility toward dissent. Two cases illustrate Bush's techniques for punishing critics -- the use of surrogates to damage the careers of dissenters like the Dixie Chicks, who have faced three years of boycotts for criticizing Bush, and a more hands-on approach, as happened with the exposure of CIA officer Valerie Plame after her husband criticized Bush's Iraq evidence.For the full story of how Bush tries to stifle the voices of those who disagree with him, go to Consortiumnews.com.
