GREAT PHOTOS FROM "NEWS FROM BABYLON" WEBSITE OF THE RECENT PROTESTS AT DICTATORSHIP INAUGURATION

[Duchess Note ... All that security is a display of Imperialism, Fascism, etc. Definitely NOT Democracy nor Freedom! The protestors at the dictatorship parade et al are the true patriots. Compassionate individuals with real values, intelligence, morals and wanting to see America brought out of the quagmire that is the Bush Regime.]

UNCONNECTED DOTS
Tom Engelhardt, Tomdispatch.com
The global reach of Bush's inauguration speech was lost on a media with a fragmented view the world; for a holistic analysis you'll have to click off that TV, use your local paper to wrap the fish, and head for the internet.
