Moyers Discusses Iraq, President Bush, Poetry

"[Bush] doesn't seem to exhibit the imagination to put himself on the other side of the American frame of reference," Moyers said. "I struggle with this question, 'How is it you can be well-loved, well-taught, well-churched and still be so unaware of the experiences of other people?'"
In addition to criticizing the current administration's foreign policy, Moyers said the trend among many politicians to rely on ideologies - such as religious fundamentalism - would keep governments disconnected from their constituents, and is a threat to American democracy.
