bush loves democracy...
except when the people he doesn't like get elected.

Chavez, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (Iranian President), Hamas...anymore?

Would these people have been elected were it not for the extremist pres we've got? I don't think so.

2. bush loves the illusion of democracy, freedom, liberty, etc.
they're just codewords for "american" as far as he's concerned, devoid of any other meaning.
he's actually in favor of dictatorship, repression, governmental intrusion, etc.

but he recognizes the value in proclaiming these "meaningless" ideals.

3. He likes Musharaaf who overthrew an elected government
It's the BIG LIE. Countries unite along lines of convenience not democracy. Look at China. The US in a perfect world would have nothing to do with this repressive regime but Bush can't get enough trade with China.
