Presidential Debate

Ok, so in other words, other nations have duties - fair enough - and Bush will tell them what these duties are. The second point is exactly what caused all the trouble. Maybe because some nations dare to believe that they are sovereign Nations and not Bush's lackeys.

But all this realy vague and sort of foreplay, the only important thing was this: (CNN link)  sounds pretty clear to me.

So in what way did I take this "out of context"? On the contrary, I also added all my statements up in one post to show that those statements and actions can only be seen in context to each other!
More simply put, I'd be most greatful if you would stop accusing me of liking to take things out of context as this is simply untrue. After all this is a place for discussions and not for personal attacks.

Even the US and Canada have active Al Queda cells operating as we have witnessed. So, the administrations bluster at Europe and Central Asia is more of "what are we going to do about this" and less of "here we come with our war machine".

When you quote one inflamatory sentence from a speech given before an outraged congress and US populace from 10 days after one of the most horrendous days in our history, and then use that one sentence to imply that the US is going to march their war machine over any nation (friend or foe) that is not willing to surrender a suspect to gitmo... Well, to me, that is taking things wildly out of context.

I am not attacking you personally, only what you are saying. I'm sorry if it feels personal, but it is not. I think the source of your misperception is that you relied on CNN to predigest your facts. CNN took the Presidents words out of contect as well. But, that's what sells newspapers and advertisements.
