Buchanon is still very conservative but detests Bush's neo-conservative philosophy which seeks, in essence, to control most of the world, at least from a military standpoint. I think you're right that he doesn't like Bush. I just read recently that he slammed him on some other issue but I can't remember what it was. He and McCain react to Bush like a liberal does. <g> ted

This aggressive strategy may good good and macho, but it means having our soldiers stationed virtually everywhere around the world at once and being responsible for all troublemakers. It is a hugely expensive strategy, spreads our forces too thin, makes us very imperialist-looking and invites more terrorism out of resentment against us. Ironically Bush promised to be a humble isolationist president during the debates. He either lied or changed, or a combination. Frankly, I think we should start closing foreign bases and completing the post Cold War transition. I tend to agree.......the cost is not worth all the fall out. ted
