Quote: The Time Trust said: I'd say a better comparison is with Roosevelt, Johnson, Reagan, and Bush, amongst others who were optimistic about their use of force to make the world "safe for democracy" and the like.
In pursuit of their own interests--Which is something they made clear to the public. G-man's list, on the other hand, contains people who wanted their principles to be enforced for the sheer sake of spreading what they percieved to be political enlightenment. There's a difference between promoting something that you know works and trying to convince people that something works
Quote: I don't agree with George W. Bush's politics, but I do think he genuinely believed he could make the world a safer place through invading Iraq.
But again, who do you think he kept in mind as first priority? America or the rest of the world?
