USA's New Foreign Policy

Did any of you hear about the new policy the US wants to have? This new policy will "allow" the US to take the initiative and invade any country that they see as a "national threat" in order to overthrow the government and and put a 'utopian' Democratic government in its place.

Does this sound odd to anyone else?

First Iran (or is it Iraq? I always forget :oops:), next we'll be going after Cuba, North Korea, and finally China, all in the name of spreading peace.
This is the kind of policy that starts wars, like Hitler's.

I don't really care anymore, bush is a dumbass who looks like a chipmunk, and I'm going to be moving out of this country as soon as possible just because everything here is so damned corrupt.

It is pretty sad that someone as moronic as moose can make a post contrived of falacious oppinion and get people to read it as fact.

It is worse that Marge then backs it up with false poll numbers.

1) Bush's approval rating, per zogby (the only reliable one), is above 70%.
2) All presidents create a policy for foriegn relations while they are in office.
3) Moose, you moron, it doesn't get ratified, we aren't talking about an ammendment to the constitution.
4) The first strike policy is merely an extension of the Monroe Doctrine of this century anyway, so it isn't really anything 'too' new. It is merely a natural evolution in a post cold war world.


Take a friggin' civics class. PLEASE! I really don't care if you end up liberal or conservative. You can hate Bush or love him. The point is, don't sit around stewing over something you don't understand. Go out and educate yourselves.

I'm moving to Italy with my wife and daughter as soon as I make enough money. I have a painting of my house in Italy on my dorm room wall. You all can come visit me, I'll pay for the plane ticket, when things get rough.

But Cameron, It's people like you that gave Hitler power.

Sure I was exaggerating a little, but that's how you get attention and start a movement.
This is a Republic and that means I have control over my elected officials. I'm going to voice my views because that's how the nation works. My views are not fallacious. And if the only thing you have against me specifically is a slightly inappropriate choice of words then that's just wrong.
And I dont' care whether it was an extension of a doctrine already in place. Moving the Jews to a concentration camp was an extension of the doctrine to move them to Ghettos.

I never posted anything definite, I said I was uder the impression that his numbers were under 50%. And there was an ABC news report from July which said it rebounded to 57% (do a google search.) I am merely refuting the fact that I thought most people didn't like Bush. I don't know, or pretend to know a lot about politics. I backed up nothing. Read the damn posts instead of bursting out into a flame.
