Trade Mark

A lot has been discussed about the Bush Doctrine, namely that the woman running for one of the most important jobs in the world doesn't know what that is. Here's a general overview of said doctrine:

"It is an enduring American principle that this duty obligates the government to anticipate and counter threats, using all elements of national power, before the threats can do grave damage. The greater the threat, the greater is the risk of inaction – and the more compelling the case for taking anticipatory action to defend ourselves, even if uncertainty remains as to the time and place of the enemy’s attack. There are few greater threats than a terrorist attack with WMD. To forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries, the United States will, if necessary, act preemptively in exercising our inherent right of self-defense."

Let me translate that for you- we can attack any country we want if we have even the slightest idea that they might want to attack us.

Man, I wish I had a doctrine like that. Oh, wait- I can do that. I mean, I am the President of TempyWorld™1 and I can pretty much do whatever I want so here's my doctrine:

"It is an enduring principal of office workers that this duty obligates Tempy to anticipate and counter any exercise heretoforth all power against any ne'er-do-wellery of people who pertain to the douchebaggerish and a-fortiori to jurisdiction ex-facie with foreseeable risk that is a writ of mandamus."

Translation: I hate Sarah Palin and I'm hungry but we are out of cheese sticks.
