The plain truth is that this regime is nothing short of totalitarian - today's edition

Check out what Transportation secretary Ray LaHood had to say at the Aspen Institute Ideas Festival last month about the advantages of the Chinese system for getting infrastructure built.  Take in each aspect of it - his praising of a decision-making process that only involves two or three people, his ongoing enamoration with high-speed rail, even though it's been a costly failure for his beloved Chinese, his castigation of the Congressional Pubs sent to Washington in the midterm elections for "doing nothing."

What kind of madness makes a person love civilizational ruin?
