 Liberal Hawks: Flying in Neocon Circles - by Tom Barry
Liberal hawks like Ivo Daalder, Robert Kerrey, and Will Marshall also find themselves discredited as the quagmire in Iraq swallows up all their arguments supporting the invasion and occupation.
Perhaps the clearest articulation of the liberal hawk position on foreign and military policy is found in an October 2003 report by the Progressive Policy Institute.
An open question facing the presumptive Democratic Party leadership and the presumptive party nominee John Kerry is whether they will align themselves with the militaristic and supremacist foreign policy advocated by the liberal hawks.

The story it tells is of a Democratic party that cannot talk — or even think — about matters of defense and national security.
The Democrats seem to be suffering from a kind of deep internal taboo on the subject of national defense.

Gillespie also said recent positive economic numbers show Bush's tax cuts are turning the nation's economy around, and he assailed the nine Democrats in the 2004 presidential race for wanting to repeal some, or all, of those tax cuts -- something Republicans insist would amount to a tax hike.
He also hit the Democrats for rejecting what he said is a long-standing U.S. policy of "pre-emptive self-defense" to prevent terrorist attacks, and he also rejected their criticism of Bush for going ahead with the war in Iraq in the face of substantial international opposition.

By 1986, the State Department admits that Afghanistan is "probably the world's largest producer of opium for export" and "the poppy source for a majority of the Southwest Asian heroin found in the United States." U.S. officials, however, fail to take action to curb production.
Not only did America back Islamic fundamentalists against the Soviets in Afghanistan, but the US also supported the Ba'ath party of Saddam Hussein in the 1963 Iraqi coup because the Ba'ath Party was anti-Communist, and continued to support him during the 1980s, supplying him with his weapons of mass destruction programs and other weapons.
