Patrick RuffiniGeorge W. Bush's beefing up of the security state while defending religious freedom was an effective counter to right-wing nationalism.

There's a strategic reason why Bush signed the Patriot Act while at the same talking about a "religion of peace"
Once Obama abandoned the idea of a war on terror, it instead all became about Islam.

-
Sure, lots of warbloggers and Frank Gaffney called for rhetorically singling out Islam, but Bush got a pass for his military action.

But one might say: Iraq. Those horrors don't compare to the costs of sticking one's head in the sand on Syria.
-
Chomping at the bit to single out a religion is a response to no strategy to combat or elevate terrorism as a problem specifically.

@patrickruffini@hotlinejosh Actually it was worse! He abandoned the idea of war on Islam, and it became a war on psychotic fake Muslims! -
@PatrickRuffini Its hard to argue he abandoned the idea of a war on Terror when many policies (i.e. Drone strikes) were kept. Diff =degrees -
@PatrickRuffini the premise of terrorism began with a PNAC document and Pearl Harbor [9/11]? U.S. Gov created terrorism using fear!
