I am not in your league in this arena so mostly coming out of ignorance but I have gotten completely cynical about who is telling the truth anymore. So agree with need to be trying to think critically. I was just crazed by Trump and suppose the relief of Joe made me a little complacent!! But we are terrible about paying attention to warnings!! Anyway, thanks for your thinking.

Could it be that those who come to be the nitty gritty managers of foreign policy make too many assumptions? We all know what happens when you assume. A fair amount of hubris goes into the mix, and people make ignorant decisions about other countries and cultures. They think they know more than they do.

As for the Bushmorons who sent my son into war, I will always think Cheney should be in jail. Two people who skipped out on going to Vietnam sent other mothers sons into war. They certainly did not encourage their daughters to enlist, did they?

Well thought out letter today. A reminder that flawed human beings inhabit the presidency. But please, God, spare us from another far right, everyone for himself president.

Thanks for your prospective, TC.
