It really makes me nervous when one of the people who could potentially be Vice President - or PRESIDENT, if the need arises - doesn’t know what the “Bush Doctrine” is.

Maybe nervous isn’t the right word.

More like pissed off.

ARRRRRRRGH.

In what respect, Charlie?

Jacob Weisberg, in his book “The Bush Tragedy,” actually identified six Bush Doctrines:

Bush Doctrine 1.0 (3/7/99—9/10/01): Unipolar Realism;

Bush Doctrine 2.0 (9/11/01—5/31/02): With Us or Against Us;

Bush Doctrine 3.0 (6/1/02—11/5/03):  Preemption;

Bush Doctrine 4.0 (11/6/03—1/19/05):  Democracy in the Middle East;

Bush Doctrine 5.0 (1/20/05— 11/7/06):   Freedom Everywhere;

Bush Doctrine 6.0 (11/8/06 to date):  ”absence of any functioning doctrine at all.”
