A New Sheriff in Town

Citizen Smash has an interesting email that Condi Rice sent out to all the employees at State. My favorite paragraph was:
In these momentous times, American diplomacy has three great tasks. We will unite the community of democracies in building an international system that is based on our shared values and the rule of law. We will strengthen the community of democracies to fight the threats to our common security and alleviate the hopelessness that feeds terror. And we will spread freedom and democracy throughout the world. That is the mission that President Bush has set for you and me, and the great mission of American diplomacy today.
No mention of Real-Politic, the UN, the "International Community". Just democracies - the Coalition of the Willing replacing the United Nations and that's just fine in my book.
