I would not consider such obvious rhetorical ramblings as anything other than
BS. I don't thing Bush Sr meant it - despite all the talk of a "new world
order", Bush was playing the same old game of Realpolitik. We can quote none
other than Strobe Talbott, currently Clinton's Deputy Secretary of State,
author of that much quoted article in TIME - which identifies his world
federalist sympathies - in his speech to Aspen Strategy Group back in 1991
(See Foreign Affairs America & the World, 1991/92), when he said:
"Despite Bush's rhetoric on the eve of the [Gulf] war, the objective of
Desert Storm was, in its essence, the defense of the old established order,
the restoration of the status quote ante.... While fighting with the most
modern weapons imaginable, the allies were united behind a concept of
collective security that had changed little in seventy years. The coaltion
was dedicated, above all, to preserving the sanctity of international
boundaries established after World War 1 and the notion of national
sovereignty that went back almost 400 years, when the idea of the modern
nation state emerged from the wreckage of the Holy Roman Empire."
As for Bush Sr himself, Strobe said "While unquestionably an
internationalist...[Bush] never had his heart in teh cause or in the concept
of intervention on behalf of democratic and humanitarian principles."
And if you want to get some idea of what Bush Jr thinks, well there's an
essay in the Jan/Feb 2000 issue of Foreign Affairs by Condoleezza Rice, Bush
Jr's foreign policy adviser and once Bush Sr's adviser on the USSR.
