Spreading democracy, I don't get it

Minor rant:

Seriously, i don't get, understand, nor comprehend the need for this whitehouse administration's need to "spread democracy". For crying out loud it reminds of mormon's going door to door trying to convert people.

Other day i saw this headline of bush more or less saying to cubans, rise up and be a democracy! Rice in todays headlines is saying plenty of aid will come there way then they "chart a different course"

What f**king ever! What's it to use what government they have? They can be communist, totalrian, buddist, whatever, as long as they make decent neighbor's and dont stir **** up, who cares what they are?! Why does it matter?

I am so sick and tired of reading about how we're trying to "spread democracy". The word itself has become nothing but Bush administration rhetoric, much like the word, "freedom". Their continual usage of those words strikes any meaning from them.
