what's wrong with the Bush administration, concisely stated

Here, at the end of this story about the people who were arrested for thoughtcrime at a Colorado Bush rally, is Scott McClellan's concise summation of the White House's attitude: "If we think people are coming to the event to disrupt it, obviously, they're going to be asked to leave."

In other words, disagreement = dissent = disruption. And the proper response? Pre-emption.
