What an isolationist policy you would have us practice..
Not to care about what the other countries of the world think of us. Maybe that is why President Bush wants to explore Mars. There we will be all by ourselves... And no Taliban,AlQuida or anything to worry about.


More importantly, we get to keep everything for ourselves even if it is mainly red rock.

I always thought the concept of the UNITED NATIONS was a good one. Coopertion, sharing and working together in a United way to solve the problems of the world.

Amazing, isn't it? Under Bush, global cooperation is no longer de riguer.

The dark side of conservatives can be very reactionary. In the past, that often translated into a withdrawal from the world. Under Bush, its morphed into pre emptive war under the guise of democratic nation building.

And anyone who disagrees.......the UN and our former long time allies for an example............become superfluous.

With the idea of just thinking of our interests we have to be sure that OUR INTERESTS are not tainted or too one sided...
Some call it Imperialism..


Nasty word that "Imperialism"......best not to mention it around here.......it puts the righties on edge. <g>
