Tom Brokaw wrote a book about the finest generation. He should write a book about the worst generation, the 1960's "free love and peace" crowd. Bill, Hillary, and their mob, I mean administraion, epitomizes everything that was wrong with the 1960's, with the lie that peace and freedom can be maintained without paying a price.

Exodus 34
6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

"But speaking of America's orally-fixated ex-president, the Clinton presidency unadmirably demonstrates all the wishful thinking, procrastination and irresponsibility involved in depending on diplomats to "negotiate" the pages and pages of high-fallutin' hot air called "international agreements" these days, as well as the dire consequences of such foreign-policy sophistry.

Yup.

Sigh. It's not so much that diplomatic agreements are never worth anything. It's more that there are some folks who won't honor an agreement, and the Left has been unwilling to admit it.

Really, what good does a treaty do with a regime like North Korea's? They've proved willing to inflict the most appalling torture on their own people -- and they're going to honor a one-sided giveaway agreement with a country whose leaders don't even admit to the existence of evil? What good does an agreement do with Yassir Arafat? He's been endlessly willing to commit the worst atrocities imaginable on civilians, women, and children -- and we expect him to honor an agreement in which he's given everything he demands in exchange for untimed, unenforceable promises to do something to quell terrorism?

Treaties and accords are for honorable men, not for the sort of scum that rule gangster-states and practice the slaughter of the innocent for political gain.

Freedom, Wealth, and Peace,
