The US has become a rogue nation.

Gentle reader, if you prefer comforting lies to harsh truths, don't read this column.

By Paul Craig Roberts

The state of the union is disastrous. By its naked aggression, bullying, illegal spying on Americans, and illegal torture and detentions, the Bush administration has demonstrated American contempt for the Geneva Convention, for human life and dignity, and for the civil liberties of its own citizens. Increasingly, the US is isolated in the world, having to resort to bribery and threats to impose its diktats. No country any longer looks to America for moral leadership. The US has become a rogue nation.

The US has been a rogue nation from the first day of the W presidency.

Do you realize that I no longer identify as an American when traveling abroad, because of W's rogue actions, and because W won a "popular vote" in the 2004 elections?

Amen to that Rachel , the thing is I have never understood how the people of America have never understood this.
