:I'm unaware of a tone likening nation-building to [[Imperialism]]. Aren't [[democracy]] and Imperialism opposites? And not all conservatives supported the invasion - even though the Senate gave bipartisan support for it. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 19:04, 3 March 2008 (EST)

::Ed - the nation-building=imperialism is me. I'm always glad to see refutations of imperialist ideologies - and there's no doubt that spreading democracy at the point of a gun is an exercise in imperialism - no matter what guise they take. As for conservative opposition to the war, that may be the case, but a quick look at the tone of this wiki's talk boards and relevant articles suggests a distinct pro-war bias. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it can be a legit mainstream position...but one that needs to be reconciled with this article.[[User:AliceBG|AliceBG]] 19:19, 3 March 2008 (EST)
