Most importantly, Bush did not ask the hard questions - perhaps because he, like those below him, already knew the answers they wanted. They created a closed culture, impervious to contradictory facts, a culture in which civil rights have been given short shrift and some people have been deemed not to deserve any rights protection at all.
最重要的是，布什根本没有提出困难的问题－也许因为他，和他的手下，已经知道了自己想要的答案。他们全然不顾相反的事实依据，营造了完全封闭的气氛，这样的文化蔑视公民权利，而且认定有些人根本不配受到任何保护。
