Holy crap! Its 1984.....
Was reading the news tonight and came across this article:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11847835/
The choice quote is this:
"President Bush plans to issue a new national security strategy today reaffirming his doctrine of preemptive war against terrorists and hostile states with chemical, biological or nuclear weapons, despite the troubled experience in Iraq."
And then later on:
"The White House plans to release the 49-page National Security Strategy today, starting with a speech by national security adviser Stephen J. Hadley to the U.S. Institute of Peace."
Issuing a document that basically says we can preemptively strike anyone we want to the "institute of peace"... reminded me (sadly) more then a little of 1984.
