Saying the acts of this government represents what we all think is like saying that everything your mother, the babbling schizophrenic cat lady, says, you whole-handedly agree with.

Everytime he'd order a shot, he would say "and then you MUST have a lollipop."<BR/><BR/>I remember my mom having a conversation with him during the hostage crisis circa 1979. The detail that I most remember was how he laughed at those bumper stickers with Mickey Mouse flipping the bird, saying "Hey, Iran!" The good doctor laughed and said, "I don't think Walt Disney would be happy about that!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914855334135989478.post-19154376879732051932007-10-02T21:18:00.000-04:002007-10-02T21:18:00.000-04:00One of my closest friends is an Iranian, and her m...One of my closest friends is an Iranian, and her mother stays here for months at a time.

In the course of ...Excellent post, Dr. Monkerstein. <BR/><BR/>In the course of studying history and poltical science, I've come to the realization that most foreign policy is directed not at actual political realities, but at making noise for the home crowd. <BR/><BR/>In his 1962 book <I>Cold War Diplomacy, 1945-1960</I> (Yes, this is the kind of book that people with a Master's Degree in Political Science read on long train rides), Norman Graebner pointed out the consistent failure of the United States to achieve tangible foreign policy objectives vis a vis the Soviet Union because vilifying them played so much better with the home crowd. All this with a background of a continued terror campaign against blacks in the south, open discrimination against blacks and hispanics in the north and a general deep-rooted sexism in our culture and workplace.
