Some of us, including me, think that it is against the founding ideals of our country to unilaterally "correct behavior" abroad. Our country was the result of someone trying to "correct our behavior". We believe in majority rule. When, in America, we find a problem, we build a consensus to combat it. When we speak of "spreading freedom" across the globe, it must be done via the above principles of consensus and majority rule, otherwise we are hypocrites.

I don't think people on the left are against America getting ahead. They just want the US to do so by virtue and not through under-handed dealings.

In contrast, I think there are people on the right hoping that Europe's whole social system fails.

Is Europe some dictator-ridden land of oppression? Or is it another place of many "democratic" states where freedom rings, but not to the tune of American conservatives?

While accusing American liberals of wanting the US to fail, I find many across the aisle openly hoping for European democracy to fail.

That's a bit twisted, isn't it?

These countries don't pose any military threat to the US, but you preen about how wonderful "democracy" is in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Mind you, those people in Iraq and Afghanistan are still muslim and think of Americans as "the infidels".

Some of your talk sounds like you're branding Europeans "the infidels".

As long as you think anti-war Americans are trying to hinder America, are you not also wishing Europeans to the devil?
