I'm surprised you don't recall the Bush Doctrine from when the Bush Gang was putting together it's "case" to invade Iraq. The Bush Doctrine was touted as a bold philosophical breakthrough in support of the War on (Some) Terror, summarizable as "It is acceptable to invade a soverign nation with whom you have no quarrel if you claim to believe that they may someday pose a threat."
I can't think of anything else that has ever been labelled "The Bush Doctrine," and I knew exactly what Gibson was asking.
