funny how this just keeps turning up... like a bad penny. it's the whole enchilada layed out pretty as you please, signed by the illustrious big brains that conjured it up, and even has their names affixed in all of their god blessed glory.
and still, so many continue to label it "liberal paranoid claptrap".
so. after several years of this, i'm left with only 2 conclusions;
1) the people that are calling me kookoo for pointing it out haven't taken the time to actually look at the site and read the cute li'l manifestos posted there. most of which appear to be neo-conservative extremist, world domination wet dreams.
or:
2) they
have read it and heartily agree that the united states is not only under a blessed mandate to rule the world, but is damn well entitled to do so.
or maybe, there's a 3rd option. some people just don't care as long as they get tax breaks.
starting to smell a little bit roman to me.
** as an aside... although the original web site mysteriously disappeared a couple of years ago, you can still find mention of the fact that several of the pnac'ers were also founders of a group called the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq. but i'm sure it's just a coincidence.
being concerned doesn't make you paranoid. just aware.
