This idiot must be confused because Bush said people naturally yearn to live free because they are made that way by the Almighty.

People yearn for several things some of them contradictory. And I suspect that most of the people yearn for the comfortable and secure life much more than for political freedom like right to start a political party or your own newspaper.

You may be right, but the troublemakers are satisfied with political rights. Democracy selects the wannabes like bin Laden and Nasrallah out and pouts them under kleeg lights where those who want to be free can watch them.

Inevitable, no. Never heard Bush say any such thing. Actually, I never heard anyone say it. Unalienable rights might be secured other ways. Even susan Collins trying to restrict smokers buying rights on internet today shows our government will oppress, if we let it.
