Negotiation

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -- G. Orwell

I remember those productive talks we had with Hitler, Mussolini and Hirohito. Oh, wait, we let our guns do the talking, because you can't negotiate with irrational people. You might ponder the fine relationship we've had with Germany, Italy and Japan since we won that war.


FYI: My post "Another Rev" (5/13 ) appeared in today's newspaper.
