I just checked out the New American Century website and is it ever scary. Click on the link, read the signatories and you'll also get a chill. The signatories of that 1997 statement of principles are in charge, the principles guiding our nation.
It's like a blood brother gang, with the goal of taking over the world. Only, they're serious and out for blood.
Here's an interesting idea from that website whose membership includes our most powerful leaders:
The Bush Doctrine is also notable for what it is not. It is not Clintonian multilateralism; the president did not appeal to the United Nations, profess faith in arms control, or raise hopes for any “peace process.” Nor is it the balance-of-power realism favored by his father.
That scares me. Mainly because I don't believe in hegemonic rule of the world by anyone. Because I do believe in such feel good policies as "multilateralism", "arms control", and let's not forget "peace process". Now you know where George W. Bush is coming from. No wonder we're in such a awful hole.

Wow, busy night for ya, third post in a couple of hours! Anyways, I hope the people who are blindly supporting this administration realizes what idiots they are. I knew Bush wouldn't do us any good, but I didn't think he'd be getting us into a war because he doesn't believe in doing things peacefully. I wonder if Bush and his croonies realizes that we're not playing cowboys and indians, this is real life and you need to try to use peaceful ways to resolve your issues. But I guess they missed that lesson in class, they were just the ignorant bullies on the playground who never learned that fighting doesn't solve anything.

And then it finishes: "Such a Reaganite policy..." It's still weird to me to have older people, such as those that signed this "manifesto," to think Reagan was such a great guy. Every one else that I know was either losing their job, lost their job, or been out of work during the Reagan era. I guess if you had money and a job at this time and worked for the government and were white (almost forgot that one) and liked cowboy movies, Reagan was awesome. Forgetting how incredibly shadey his policies were, and if he wasn't faking the "I don't have any recollection of that," he should have been in prison.
Reagan gets me hot.
