Today, President Bush spoke to the nation. He declared terrorists are intent on building `a “totalitarian empire” of global reach.’ I muse, whose intention is this? Actions demonstrate this is the goal of George W. Bush and his administration.

Baby Bush and his battalion have stated this philosophy for years. Nevertheless, Bush Junior wants us to believe otherwise. However, we know. The Bush base, neoconservatives revealed a desire to spread democracy, globally, long ago.
On June 3, 1997, ultra conservative extremists stated, “We need to accept responsibility for America’s unique role in preserving and extending an international order.” They defiantly declared, “We aim to make the case and rally support for American global leadership.”
The Project for the New American Century, in their Statement of Principles, suggested then and continues to pose Americans forgot “the essential elements of the Reagan Administration.” The men within this organization avowed, they would remind the citizens of this country. They fine fellows are still trying to teach “us” what is “right.”
Their mission has not changed. Bush and the neocons are actively promoting “a foreign policy that boldly and purposefully promotes American principles abroad.” They think this necessary. Witness today’s Bush speech.
These bold boys, through their President GW Bush, postulate, a strong military force is vital. They claimed years ago and maintain, “We need to increase defense spending significantly if we are to carry out our global responsibilities.” Yet, they assert this is the plan of others. I wonder.
Elliott Abrams, Gary Bauer, William J. Bennett, Jeb Bush, Dick Cheney, Eliot A. Cohen, Midge Decter, Paula Dobriansky, Steve Forbes, Aaron Friedberg, Francis Fukuyama, Frank Gaffney, Fred C. Ikle, Donald Kagan, Zalmay Khalilzad, I. Lewis Libby, Norman Podhoretz, Dan Quayle, Peter W. Rodman, Stephen P. Rosen, Henry S. Rowen, Donald Rumsfeld, Vin Weber, George Weigel, and Paul Wolfowitz made it known almost a decade earlier, they were working to create a autocratic empire. They still are.
President Bush declares that the idea of building a one-party society is the task of terrorists. Perhaps, it is. I believe the true dilemma is radicals, fanatics, are working from within. Terrorists are our leaders!
