How interesting to see the nitwits come out of the woodwork with their
statements against the tack the President is currently taking with the 
terrorist situation in Beirut.  Everyone agrees that there is no one
to shoot at and that even if one chose someone many innocent people would
be killed as well.  THEIR BLAMING HIM FOR NOT SHOOTING FROM THE HIP!!!

Of course if he did act like a 'cowboy' they'ed fall all over themselves
crying about THAT.  

The distinction that has been made between today in Beirut and yesterday
in Iran is quite clear.  There WAS a government policy involved and an
identified group of officials, persons and property - an entire nation! -
to address with 'force'.  There is nothing like that today in Beirut.  
The latest word is that even the terrorists holding the hostages are falling
out among themselves over what to do next.

But no matter the nitwits are only a very small number of loudmouth techie
twerps (on the net) and in the nation at large only a few members of the
quickly melting Democratic party.

If Reagan walked on water, (why not, he walks on sleeze) they'ed still
have something to say against him.  Jerks suffering from being rejected
by their fellow countrymen with nothing new to say.

Rave on.
