"Unless American honor, vital interests or citizens were at risk or have been attacked, U.S. policy should be to stay out of war."
PJB
Pat Buchanan's notion of what consititutes vital American interests is so cramped and narrow that if we were talking about arson, he would deny there is any threat from an arsonist dousing a building with gasoline unless the arsonist has hunted the occupant down in his room and doused him in his pajamas with gasoline too.
Even then Buchanan would wait until the arosnist struck a match.
Our country would not survive six months if Buchanan were in charge.
