4. Bob Weaver's house needs to be searched...
He is spouting "anti America" propoganda. How dare he question the Fuhr...I mean the shrub.

We are spreading democracy to other countries whether they want it or not. You got a problem with that??

I didn't think so...

2. America took the role upon itself when we defeated Nazism in WW2
Personally, I think America should use it's power for good. The danger is, ideals don't match reality.

5. Ummm, the Allies defeated the Nazis...
Britian, Russia, Canada, US, etc. It was a group effort not a US victory, an ALLIED victory. That was a time when the word 'ally' had not been subverted by baby bush to mean an empty coalition.
