>>Today, British politicians seem determined to make the same mistake. They exude the spirit not of Winston Churchill or Margaret Thatcher but of diplomat and Labor Party stalwart Harold Nicolson, who used to sigh to friends in the dark days after France's surrender in 1940: "All we can do is lie on our backs with our paws in the air and hope that no one will stamp on our tummies."<<

What an absurd attitude, truly sickening. Unfortunately, we have a plethora of Harold Nicolsons in Congress right now and that is even more sickening. I wonder if these folks have ever pondered what a pack of al Qaeda terrorists would do to them when they found them on their backs with paws in the air?
I suspect the terrorists would slit their bellies in search of evidence of guts or a spine...........
