::::That is an interesting interpretation. Nonetheless, every President since Wilson has actually been elected to the office and has a Constitutional responsibility, whereas critics have only been critics. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 21:12, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

:::::Sure, and critics have the right to be critical, be it Clinton or Bush. You have to accept that they come to a different view of the presidents policies, even if you given them the same evidence, and even if it doesn't coincide with your view. [[User:Order|Order]] 10 April 11:25 (AEST)
The questions remain: Why did you remove the reference to Bush's pre-2000 anti-nation-building position? Why did you revert a good compromise on how liberals view current foreign policy? And why do you lock an article, but continue editing, which is an abuse of sysop privilege? [[User:Order|Order]] 10 April 10:50 (AEST)

:*Several leading "Liberals" such as Kennedy, have called for active U.S. Military intervention and regime change, to save lives in Africa, many times. Yet they were opposed to the same, and indeed it cost several hundred thousands their lives, in Iraq and elsewhere. It was the public policy of Ronald Reagan, and indeed even John Kennedy to spread freedom everywhere. --~ [[User:TK|TK]] <sup>[[User_talk:TK|MyTalk]]</sup> 21:18, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

That why the previous version said, maybe poorly worded, that isolationist vs interventionist positions are traditionally neither liberal nor conservative. And Iraq is not the first time that democrats (who is not the same as liberals) favor isolationist positions. The opposition in the US typically turns isolationist, when a foreign adventure turns ugly.[[User:Order|Order]] 10 April 11:30 (AEST)
