I read his screed...

...and if I were to sum it up in so-many-words-or-less, It would tend to come out:

Neo-Fascist.

Who's this guy crappin'? Against all his railings about "respecting the morals, laws, blah blah blah" of individual countries, I hear: "We're the Guv'mint, dammit! We (and we alone) know hwat's good for you!"

NO thank you! I'm not quite ready for Big Brother. (And neither are those Chinese dissidents who made such a fuss in Tiennamen [sic] Square, either, for example....)
