I've decided to instigate a project over the next couple of weeks. One of the Neoconservative's main goals for the war in Iraq was to spread Democracy. We at the Node were, to borrow a phrase, "present at the creation" (vicariously) and remember that most of the people championing this thesis were not quite so keen on spreading Democracy a couple of decades ago. I'm going to dig through my papers and find some of the more outstanding quotes and examples of how these guys fought against the spread of Democracy over the last twenty or so years. I think it's important that people know some of the history of actual spread of Democracy and that, to put it mildly, many of the people in the Bush administration tried their hardest to prevent it.
