:::::You assume somehow that describing how liberal positions compare to conservative positions is the same as advocating liberal positions. Tell me one point where the point I try to make is driven by the two-year election cycle? You try to win an imagined argument with scoring technical points, like that the military is just a tool (Did I say otherwise?), or that Liberal and Democrats are something different (That point has been repeated made by me an others again and again), and otherwise calling people liberal. The argument is imagined, because nobody here wants to discuss with you whether Bush's criticism on the intervention in Haiti was right or wrong. The article should describe current and historic policies, not propose an alternatives. This tries to be an encyclopedia, not a think tank. I am just interested that he criticized the intervention in Haiti, to get to the point that conservatives can hold isolationist positions, too. User:Order 12 April, 9:40 (AEST)

::::::This is easy. Were the origin blanket statement was made "opposition to American foreign policy" was modified to "opposition to ''current'' American forieng policy"; now, in two years, rather than being a doctrinaire observation of liberal foreign policy since the Vietnam war, it will be just a moot point (assume libs win control of the Administration in two years).

*Furthermore, Bush answered '''Absolutely not''' to the question if the US military should make nation building one of its core missions. That suggest firm opposition. That the word was invented in the late 90s doesn't matter. Call it interventionism, if you like it better.
