It completely amazes me that anybody can think for even a second that Bush's "Liberty Doctrine" was a surprise. He has been expounding upon that same doctrine since 9/11, and to a lesser extent even before that time.
The most detailed look at it was first given on June 1, 2002
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/06/20020601-3.html President Bush Delivers Graduation Speech at West Point
Not long after that, in "The National Security Strategy of the United States of America",
http://www.whitehouse.gov/nsc/nss.html , the administration laid out the whole deal, with reasoning and detail. Many only saw "preemption" in this, but they were simply being myopic, intentionally or not. The first paragraph of that is:
"The great struggles of the twentieth century between liberty and totalitarianism ended with a decisive victory for the forces of freedomand a single sustainable model for national success: freedom, democracy, and free enterprise. In the twenty-first century, only nations that share a commitment to protecting basic human rights and guaranteeing political and economic freedom will be able to unleash the potential of their people and assure their future prosperity. People everywhere want to be able to speak freely; choose who will govern them; worship as they please; educate their childrenmale and female; own property; and enjoy the benefits of their labor. These values of freedom are right and true for every person, in every societyand the duty of protecting these values against their enemies is the common calling of freedom-loving people across the globe and across the ages."
I highly recommend that all FReepers, all who wish to catch up on what has been going on behind the scenes and why, all who still can't understand the reason our Declaration of Independence, the Magna Carta, and our Bill of Rights are so powerful, and all who simply wish to educate themselves as to the most probable direction of the Twenty-First century take a look at these documents - more than once.
The Liberty Doctrine is to this century what the Monroe Doctrine was to the 19th. President Bush's administration has invited us all to understand what is happening, if we wish to understand. This team and president are far more intelligent and farseeing than most others in the whole world. Present events demonstrate the truth in these documents. /

I, too, love your "Bush Effect"
His consistently espousing the Liberty Doctrine and demonstrating during every minute since 9/11 that we will stand up against terrorists, terrorist regimes, and totalitarians in whatever most effective manner we are able to has resulted in this Bush Effect.
I like GJs slogan: "The Bush Effect! = Governments for the people by the people!"
How about simply: "The Bush Effect! == Power to the PEOPLE"
