Isolationism isn’t a bad idea
Today Sarkozy is in town and telling the U.S. they need to police the world after what happened in Moscow. Really? I thought us policing the world is what generated the ire of a thousand would be nations. I read this in Harper’s this morning, pulled from the Virginia Gazette in 1774:
Some fitter day shall crown us the
Masters of the Main,
In giving laws and freedom to subject
France and Spain,
And all the isles o’er Ocean shall
tremble and obey
The Lords, the Lords, the Lords of
North America.
Really Sarkozy is this what you’d like to see?
