Think I must have seen an excerpt of this before. I remember replying to

Every nation sees itself as being in some way exceptional. Only the United States, though, has tried to develop foreign policies that reflect its exceptionalism.

with "France comes to mind".

The quote

The first indication that America's strategic thinkers were working on a radically new foreign-policy doctrine for the post-Cold War world came in 1992 with the Defense Planning Guidance draft, a tract that's been called "Dick Cheney's masterwork."

and subsequent statements seem to belie Tekboy's thesis that Cheney is more of a paleo-con wishing to avoid "foreign entanglements".
