re: #133 Charles

I’m not offended - it’s just that I’ve heard all of these arguments for compromising principles and hooking up with really bad people because “it’s our only choice or we’re doomed!” many times before.

I’m still surprised that people will actually argue that we should drop all our integrity and hook up with people who aren’t even fit to be spat upon.

Yes, those arguments have been made before. Did Roosevelt and Churchill drop all their integrity when they hooked up with Stalin, one of the greatest monsters in human history?

I’m not saying “it’s our only choice” but we’d better come up with some other choices PDQ. The news from Europe is not good.

If someone can offer me a brighter outlook I will welcome it with joyful tears in my eyes.
