A few quotes for a cloudy day in Rantoul:

"It really depends upon how our nation conducts itself in foreign policy. If we're an arrogant nation, they'll resent us. If we're a humble nation, but strong, they'll welcome us" - Bush, 10/11/00

"We help fulfill that promise not by lecturing the world, but by leading it. Precisely because America is powerful, we must be sensitive about expressing our power and influence. Our goal is to patiently build the momentum of freedom, not create resentment for America itself. We pursue our goals, we will listen to others. We want strong friends to join us, not weak neighbors to dominate. In all our dealings with other nations, we will display the modesty of true confidence and strength." Bush, 3/4/01

"Now, in terms of the balance between running down intelligence and bringing people to justice obviously is -- we need to be very sensitive on that." Bush, 8/6/04

"Senator Kerry has also said that if he were in charge he would fight a 'more sensitive' war on terror. America has been in too many wars for any of our wishes, but not a one of them was won by being sensitive." - Cheney today

And there you have it.
That about summs it up.

NOONE ever won a war by being a sensitive individual.

If you coiuld do that they would call it peanuckle - not war.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama
