  legacy will be.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/111907F.shtml"> To some concerned with foreign affairs, the Bush era will be remembered most 
  for the acceleration of America's putative march to empire.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/111907F.shtml">As for the once-dynamic duo who 
  characterized much of this administration - Vice President Dick Cheney and 
  Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld (and those clustered around their "offices") 
  - the only "empire" that <I>really</I> counted for them 
  was the parochial world of Washington, DC, with its lobbyists, bureaucrats, 
  politicians, and assorted supporting think-tankers, all absorbed in their petty 
  turf-wars about who among them would get government money for their minions 
  and projects, overseas or at home. This was the narcissistic province that the 
  Vice President and Secretary of Defense had the urge to dominate with their 
  "unitary executive," "wartime," commander-in-chief presidency 
  and the foreign wars that made it all possible.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DA0905B1-D61F-4499-99C0-0626734A5677/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
