Since I'm studying US history this semester, it bothers me when people whine about how Shrubya and the Republicans are turning America into an Imperialistic state. Hello, US Imperialism (which is a relative, not an absolute, term) is hardly new. We just preferred to call it "expansionism" in the past. I mean, do the names "Philippines" or "Hawaii" or "Samoa" or "Diego Garcia" or "Guantanamo Bay" ring a bell?
