Farewell and Good Riddance

I just caught President Bush's Farewell Address, and I'm feeling nostalgic. Remember the 2000 Primaries and subsequent Presidential campaign of W? Most notably, here is the foreign policy that Mr. Bush presented the American people:

Bush promised a humble foreign policy with no nation building. He had criticized the Clinton-Gore Administration for being too interventionist: "If we don't stop extending our troops all around the world in nation-building missions, then we're going to have a serious problem coming down the road. And I'm going to prevent that."[1]

How did that work out?

For your entertainment, here are some quotes from the 2000 Election Season:
