[history]
While the Bush Administration struggles to plant the seeds of democracy in the scorched earth of Iraq, the neoconservative thinkers who provided the intellectual firepower for military action against Saddam Hussein are already looking beyond Baghdad. Convinced that as the sole superpower, America has both the means and the manifest destiny to promote democratic reform around the globe, neocons inside and outside the Bush Administration are eager to press forward with their muscular foreign policy. Toppling Saddam, they argue, is just a prelude to large-scale regime change in the Persian Gulf and beyond.

I've never reported abuse. You're making me feel very insignificant. I never even saw that after looking past is thousand of times.

Did you find your tagline?
You know me better than I know myself because I always thought I was till you came along. Everybody always said I was, but you say I'm not. Explain that to me. Are you just extra insightful, or what?

He wasn't. Some neocons, like Norman Podheretz, are now accusing Reagan of appeasement when he took the troops out of Lebanon. I really hope they turn on Reagan.

You will grow out of whatever neoconism you have. I prefer to call them paleocommunists.

Now, nopardons, ValenB4 is a very good though misguided friend. I don't want my friends fighting, okay?

The President is under intense pressure from the State Dept? I could swear that I once heard the State Dept works for the President. You heard wrong. It is no more loyal to American interests than is your average U.N. apparatchik.
To: ValenB4
Are you going to report abuse? You choose to let me make you feel insignificant, you know.
I'm thinking about putting that picture you sent me as my wall paper. What do you think? ;-)

My solution to the neocons is, assuming you're familiar with Pink Floyd's The Final Cut, is to put them in The Fletcher Memorial Home - and give them all the military games they want like Risk, Civilization Call to Power. Then they could leave us alone.
