Achieving GOOD, VERIFIABLE arms control agreements that are in the interest of the PEOPLE of the US is. Contrarywise, achieving bad, unverifiable agreements that are inimical to the interests of the people of the US is an ANTI-GOAL. Additionally, the approval of "world opinion", whatever that is, is NOT A CONCERN, unless it is in the interest of the PEOPLE of the US. Get it? The President is not in office to please the Russians, or anyone else except the PEOPLE of the US. Gee, this posting sure is funny. No appeals to "knowledge" (usually defined as what the NY TIMES thinks is so), no concern over what the Russians, or other nations think. Who is the US government set up for anyway? How many people voted for you in the last election, Tim? Why do you always use emotionally loaded language in your postings? Are you a "pathological" propagandist or are you afraid that rational discussion isn't supportive of your position? I'm going to go way out on a limb and make a prediction. The general world situation is getting worse before it gets better. Within 20 years Ronald Reagan will be seen as a rather kindly old fellow who tried to protect the US in a somewhat naive and idealistic manner. The American people aren't buying it Tim. They never have and they never will. Maybe the Communists will succeed in exterminating us as they have tried to do to so many others. But the PEOPLE, that's right, the PEOPLE of this country hate and fear Communism. And it is a well-founded and proper hate and fear. That is the normal reaction to evil. What is your reaction, Tim? That's ok, I can read (hear?) you now. You oppose ALL evil, the evil of the US and the evil of the USSR (and its various minions). WHAT A CROCK!!!!!!!!!! Guy
