We are not trying to rule the world...just get at bad guys that wish us dead.

Why are you so so sure that all bad guys wish you dead and that no good ones do? :( Also, are you sure that you neocons are not bad guys too?

There are always disagreements over who the bad guys are...I have one with you, obviously.

Buchanan is right on this --- we're not the same people who defeated Nazism in Europe --- we weren't so politically correct that we made it too complicated. We keep wanting to invite the new Nazis to the White House so they will pray for the conversion of the USA to Islam while we try to figure out which ones are evil to fight.

Iraq is going to show us that nation building isn't very easy because we don't really have what it takes to build nations.

Great quote. Is this from his speech at Harvard?
