Interesting observation. /BAH goes on about the problems with despot-led nations, freedom, democracy etc., yet as you point out here has this almost constant desire to make every one conform. I never noticed it before and I should have - her references to forcing freedom on people should have alerted me. Has doublespeak got to the point where we do indeed force people to freely choose the thing we want them to choose?

This is (IMHO) significantly different from making people do it.
