Although the primary answer is "(c) Bush is a globalist at heart and wants to carry out his father's oft-repeated ambition of a "new world order"; "

As a consequence of his position thereto...all the other issues fall into line and are supporting thereto. So you could also say, "All of the Above."

But "(c)" is the explanation for all that he is doing.

It explains the monomania to destroy U.S. sovereignty and court autonomy with a series of unconstitutional trade "agreements" that are not passed by 2/3s Senate majorities as required.

It explains the President's push for the Law of the Sea Treaty, which lets the UN assert authority over the all the seas...and the right to tax the U.S. for use thereof. This treaty was killed by Ronald Reagan, properly firing all of its treasonous socialist authors from the State Dept. W has revived it, and tried to slicker it through with Richard Lugar's help. Might try and do what he did with the Illegal Amnesty bill...and do another Pact with the RATs and RINOs to overcome the Republican majority. Fortunately, a simple majority of rats and rinos is not enough for a treaty. They need 2/3rds...hence they have yet to try it. They know we still have more than 36 conservative votes against it.

It explains the constant failure to confront China.

And they thing which first caught my attention and Alamo-Girl's: It explains the constant failure to rebuild our strategic arsenal, or maintain our infrastructure of military industrial capacity, and squander in Xlintonesque fashion our residual Reagan legacy...with no serious re-capitalization intended. He doesn't intend that we should remain the Global Superpower.

His naval ship construction rate is notably... less than Bill Xlinton's!. The USN submarine fast attack fleet...supposed to be at 66 hulls according to the needs declared by the Joint Chiefs of Staff is already 10 below that, and at his current dilatory rates of production and regular retirement... will be half of that in another 15 years ...down to 28. His anemic production rates have caused our carrier fleet, which the JCS also believes that we need 15, has with underfunding-dictated retirement...fallen to only 11. And with continuing under-building of carriers, he is attempting to rationalize the resulting further collapse of the carrier fleet to 9 or 10.

The one bright spot: The Aegis missile defense has worked as good as advertised by its proponents. But then the Bad News: W is failing to actually deploy new Aegis cruisers over the baseline, and has a liesurely schedule of converting the cruisers we have to the new capability. The Navy begrudges diverting these essential cruisers to missile defense picket duty. Hence the crucial need to deploy DEDICATED Aegis Missile Defense cruisers. In fact, older Aegis cruisers are being retired which could be adapted are being retired with half their service life unused.

Rumsfeld admits that the Chinese Navy could have more attack submarines than we do by 2015. And who knows how much else. He expresses "concern" but apparenlty is unable to offer from W any timely funding to cure these.

Guess this is what W meant by being for "military transformation."

Wouldn't want a suddenly conservative U.S.Superpower to be able to "opt out" of the New World Order. Has to weaken us to the point we have to depend on Globalist agencies...for the most measily security arrangements.

I disagree.

IMHO, the answer is obviously b) Bush made a Faustian bargain with the big-money guys (big business) who raised more political money in 2000 than all other Republicans combined in order to nominate and elect him president.

Having a globalist agenda is a consequence of b). It takes money to get to where he and most of these senators have gotten and that money has come from big business. When you're at their station in the food chain, it's doubtful whether they actually have any principles. The goal of the president and certain senators is to develop a self-propogating constituency and not any policies based on deeply held personal values as they like to tell you in their campaign speeches.

In their adopted worldview, which is based purely on what their bill-paying big businsess constituents say, it's a world of business and sovereign nations only serve to restrict business operations and ultimately, profits. Who needs borders? Free trade, cheap labor, and open borders for all! Yep, most of our politicians are one world government whores sold out to their big business constituents. That's the only explanation that is consistent with their actions over the last 25 years. In truth, they've all sold the citizens of this country down the river for big business and a one world government which will benefit.... you guessed it.... big business.

Which IMO is the impetus for the quick selling off of our ports and transportation infrastucture for foreign owned port logistics, rail and toll highways. We will completely lose the ability to be independent when we no longer own/ control the transportation facilities for trade in basic necessities.
