... you don't have to be a religious fundamentalist to acquire that mindset -- all you have to be is scared.

And to be susceptible to the lure of simplistic logic, I think.

People are scared now, and they're calling Bush the devil, and his followers evil demons who want to destroy everything we hold dear. I understand the temptation to think that way, but... no. It's the same style of oversimplification that Bush used against Kerry...

Excellent point.
