"[L]iberals can never abandon the idea that we must soothe
savage beasts with appeasement---whether they're dealing
with murderers like Willie Horton or Islamic terrorists. Then
the beast eats you. There are only two choices with savages:
Fight or run. Democrats always want to run, but they dress
it up in meaningless catchphrases like 'diplomacy,' 'detente,'
'engagement,' 'multilateral engagement,' 'multilateral diplomacy,'
'containment' and 'going to the U.N.' I guess they figure, 'Hey,
appeasement worked pretty well with... uh... wait, I know this
one... ummm... tip of my tongue...' Democrats like to talk tough,
but you can never trap them into fighting. There is always an
obscure objection to be raised in this particular instance---but in
some future war they would be intrepid! One simply can't imagine
what that war would be." ---Ann Coulter
=================================================
"The torment of human frustration, whatever its immediate cause, is
the knowledge that the self is in prison, its vital force and 'mangled
mind' leaking away in lonely, wasteful self-conflict."

I just sneezed an opinion more valid than any of hers.

And that opinion is?

When my kids were little I would
give them two choices....both
choices were choices I wanted.

Now they are grownup and they know
there are many choices. Some are
much better than Coulter proposes.

Grow up, America!

Funny you quote a journalist from the 1930's but fail to remember that FDR
was Democrat.
Repug . selective memory I guess.
Anyway, I didn't see him run, I didn't see JFK run and dispite what you say
the Bosnians didn't see Clinton run either.

People like you are what's wrong here today, you blindly follow that little
puppet in the whitehouse. And with the automation of the brainwashed, repeat
anything, no matter how rediculas or untrue it maybe with the false ideal
that it is true, even when it is shown not to be.
Pathetic.
