re: Radical isolationism
Frankly, I'm getting to the point where I'm beginning to think that radical isolationism may be the way to go for America and its allies. May post on this further.
As a matter if fact, you did:
The [ . . .] school of foreign policy, that if we just stick our heads far enough up our own asses, that no bad guys will be able to see us, appeals to some people. It doesn't involve action. It doesn't involve the military. It doesn't involve political risk. It doesn't annoy leftists overseas. And most important [ . . . ], it doesn't involve independent action apart from a mob, i.e. the U.N.
To be "fair", I emended the text where you tried to pin that tail on the Democratic donkey... but if you have not just described radical isolationism, what have you described?
