Current US foreign policy is based on the most fundamental law of all, the golden rule of the Western movie.

The man wearing the white hat is the good guy and everything he does is right, even the things that don't look right. </TD> </TABLE>

The more I read and hear about all these things, the more depressed I get. A people get the government they deserve. The people who vote for Bush deserve him. God help the rest of us.

I believe his name was Paladin. On his business card was "Have Gun, Will Travel". The hero wore all black including a black hat. I don't even think he smiled (so I can only guess the color of his teeth). First impression - he must be evil.

Well, sure, he was the exception that proved the rule. Anyway, the guy in white was still always the good guy, until this guy broke the rule.

I might also add that a man who has a business card which reads "Have gun, will travel" is not exactly the kind of guy you usually want to bring home for dinner. Paladin was a glorified hit man. The precurser of many, it would seem.
