#3 Generic response to the "Now what?" question...

Well, you could whip out your personal peevy schedule and send it to the WH for immediate action. That'd prolly work, doncha think? Seems to be a mighty popular view these days. What with all the real-world restraints we suffer from in the blog-o-gubment. Can't Bush, like, microwave shit or sumthin?

#5 This shit is a perfect example of the US diplomatic problem.

Unlike TRs "Talk softly....." we constantly yell. We HAVE the big stick but if we yell about it all the time people stop worrying.

We need to spend a lot less time threatening in public and a lot more time deciding when and how to do our threatening in private. Then, if the threat doesn't work, break out the big stick.

Of course this would mean the basic renunciation of all those international talking shops. Rather then leading the UNSC and trying to pass resolutions; just speak privately. If we don't like the result, cast a veto with no explanation. If the situation worsens; show the flag a little. No explicit threat just a quiet "Don't forget the stick".

#6 What matters to the ISOLATIONISM = SOCIALISM, EMPIRE = SOCIALISM, dialectic waffle-happy Lefties is that someone else gets the blame = bills for averything, and Gummint/Gubmint put in charge of everything + everyone except themselves.
