    J2.... put yourself in their shoes and the recent history under this Administration.

    Would YOU believe anything that he says, if YOU were mentioned in his speeches and YOU were responsible for National Security?

    You know what, Rat?

    If they hadn't become so enamored of Bill Clinton (and he of them), best guess is that neither we nor they would be in this situation.

    BTW-

    I make it a habit to stay out of other people's shoes; I suggest you try it yourself.

    Shoes are not brains.

    Knowing, as you do, that the only plus I have on Clinton is that he was soooo much better than the one that took over him...

    I guess you would think im pretty naffed that he's on the shortlist for next General Secretary of the UN.... you would be right.

    However, it will be interesting to see what happens in the USA if it gets any closer...

    On the one hand, he is the only chance of getting an American into that position.... on the other, he is Clinton.

    Which Devil would you choose J2?

    Given a choice between Kofi Annan and Bill Clinton, I'd take Kofi in a heartbeat.

    This presupposes, of course, that I have a shred of concern that it might happen, or that I give a flying fuck about the U.N. these days.

    I will say that, were I to devine that Clinton had even the slightest chance of becoming Secretary, I would move to Arkansas and agitate for secession.

    As a throwaway thought, I'd say no permanent member of the Security Council should even be eligible.

    A novel idea, that; after all, it is China who holds the whip, I think.

    Yes.

    'Twas pride that done it, too:

    Pride of ownership, however misbegotten.

    Was reading this today :


    SEOUL (Reuters) - Armed, six-legged robots may one day work
    alongside man's best friend on the southern side of the Korean DMZ.

    South Korea will spend 33.4 billion won over the next five
    years to develop the robots for the heavily fortified
    demilitarised zone that divides the peninsula, the
    Communications Ministry said in a statement Friday.

    Thats alot of money that should be spent on food and health no ? Wonder who's suppling it .
