#4 China's already killed a lot more than a carrier task force's group of sailors, with the collusion of our own bureaucracy.

And Mr. Shomp: Cuba sits there, 90 miles off the cost of Florida, and has been a festering sore of tyrrany for the last fifty-eight years, with no action taken by the US since the end of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Care to try another analogy?

#8 Don't forget the fifth question. Are you willing to accept an MAD exchange that results mostly in the devastation of Big Blue urban areas?

Hmm....I'm still thinking. Give me some time.

#9 Round from Texas to Mexico's shores
To... Korea, the Yucatan's yours.
Jap Caribbean cars.
Robots rolling cigars
From Taiwan straight through Florida's doors.
