Looking past the spin

GW Bush last night made the following statement: "The United States has no right, no desire, and no intention to impose our form of government on anyone else." My question is, what are we doing in Iraq then? Why then did Bush threaten Iran and Syria implying we would spread our form of government to these countries? Bush's foreign policy is one of conquest and empire for the United States. When will people realize?

Bush also said, "They [people who don't think like the US] seek to impose and expand an empire of oppression, in which a tiny group of brutal, self-appointed rulers control every aspect of every life." Again Bush himself is doing the same in this country. Bush mentioned later in the "state of the union" that he would seek to remove the egalitarian social security system from our government. This would further depress those already economically challenged and allow for those who have money to make more. For sure this is a system of oppression trying to be enacted by the government. Another form of oppression inside our own country Bush is seeking is to further oppress and solidify the unspoken marginalizing of homosexual couples. I just don't understand the argument on a governmental level. Are there any good reasons why the state should marginalize groups that seek the same rights of other consenting adults. Hopefully people will realize this is just the same argument the state used when denying interracial marriage. And to top it off, Bush says he will attempt to impose even more facist protections for corporations weakening the power of the people to question the government. Exactly what Bush said he is opposed to, "Our aim is to build and preserve a community of free and independent nations, with governments that answer to their citizens." How can government answer to its citizens when you make it illegal to even bring up the questions Mr. Bush?
