Paul,
My last posts to noel and mqurice shows how an internationalist like myself might be tempted one day to throw up his hands and join Pat Buchanan in his isolationist camp. I am really getting way tired of this demonization of the US and its leaders and the perpetuation of the both naive and selfish european view as the correct path. Some folks need to wake up or they will find themselves living in a strange world, sooner rather than later--and a world not to their liking. mike@frustration.com

Basically, good stuff. I could quarrel a bit about her own placement in the political spectrum but that would be more than a little petty. Thanks for posting it; I enjoyed it.

Anyway, here is Jane. I think that her suggestions for conducting debate are very good and would be useful on FADG.

I agree. I have added a reference to your post to the thread header and listed the article as required reading. Thanks Paul.

So, everyone, stop what you are doing and read this article. (There will be a pop quiz later today...)

Thanks for Jane Galt's link, Paul...! She's definitely worth the time to check out...much more so than most commentators we could all think of on TV...

I read some of the Galt post. Bush is far right of Buchanan. Somewhere around dictator wannabe. Why is no one talking about the endless assault on civil rights and liberties in the US by the Bush Administration?
