Cowboys and Europeans
Excerpt:
Alas, the Europeans haven't grasped that in America only college professors and actors consider "cowboy" an insult. Thus Susan Sarandon achieved honorary European status for remarks earlier this month, when she summed up terrorism and the U.S. response as follows: "When you have a guy who thinks the best act is to blow himself up, along with others, you have to ask, 'What leads to that?' And is the response more violence? A cowboy shoot-'em-up?"
Note to Ms. Sarandon: Rent "High Noon" and get back to us after you see how Grace Kelly resolves that particular issue......
The last American president our European cousins liked to call a cowboy was Ronald Reagan--when he deployed the Euromissiles, when he bombed Libya, when he called the Soviet Union an "Evil Empire." So it shouldn't bother a man from Texas to find the Euro-set calling him a cowboy: He's wearing the white hat.
I'm rather fond of this one myself..........
