Thanks for the bump.

Of course, an entire people cannot have so perfect an understanding as its statesmen of the causes that justify, even require, going to war. Human history has taught us time and time again that as the simple faith of the peasant necessarily lacks much of the precision of the theologian's doctrine, so the judgment of any nation will always lack much of the sophistication of the statesman's subtle reasoning.

For governmental action is also the action of a free people.

Very un-Keyes-ian. I'm disappointed.

Apparently that is what he is. Freepers who had a run in with Alan three years ago in DC told me but I didn't believe them. In 2000, Forbes and Keyes, in that order, were my picks for the GOP nomination. His actions during the primaries began to change my mind about him. Those who warned me off were right.
