The thing about lumping all the various (and growing) anti-American groups on the planet together under the ridiculous term “Islamofascists” is this – it doesn’t matter if it’s hypocritical, it doesn’t matter if it makes no sense at all, all that matters is whether Bush & Co can get millions of Americans to believe it.
To date, nobody in this administration has been guilty of over-estimating the intelligence of the US public. Like Bush himself once said:
You can't fool all of the people all of the time, but you can fool some of the people all of the time - and they're the ones you've gotta concentrate on!
