I have a strategic vision, which I believe is shared by people like Bush, for creating accountable governments representing the citizens of their countries....There may be errors and abuses in tactical implementation of these strategic goals, as well as setbacks and "fine-tuning", but that does not negate the validity of my strategic position...Which is why I've constantly challenged people such as yourself to offer your own solutions to fulfilling the same strategic vision...

Sure, glad to offer some help so you won't have so many "setbacks" and such extensive need of "fine tuning."

In order to fulfill the "same strategic vision" I'd stop being a meddlesome fool, stop attempting to "remake" the world in my image or the image of my god, and I'd sure as hell stop sending my sons and daughters to kill and be killed in the process.

After that I'd try to recreate the kind of nation that the world once looked to as a shining example of what was right in the world and what they wanted to strive for. If it took them a while to try something else and they had to suffer through that, then that would be a "lesson learned" through tough love. Who knows, they might even come up with a better system.

But then how would I handle all that fear and uncertainty that made me want to strike out at someone and what would I do with ALL THAT POWER?
