The United States has no right, no desire, and no intention to impose our form of government on anyone else. That is one of the main differences between us and our enemies. They seek to impose and expand an empire of oppression, in which a tiny group of brutal, self-appointed rulers control every aspect of every life. Our aim is to build and preserve a community of free and independent nations, with governments that answer to their citizens, and reflect their own cultures. And because democracies respect their own people and their neighbors, the advance of freedom will lead to peace.
Bush’s speechwriters need some serious help. We don’t force our form of government on anybody, yet we’re helping to promote democracy. They say that their aim is to promote governments “that answer to their own people and their neighbors”, yet in the next sentence it’s — “And because democracies…” Wait, democracies? Where did we get that idea? I think we underestimate their sneakiness.
Also, I point you to this conspiracy theory involving Superman (past the comic, at the bottom).
