so in the end, what it comes down to is tolerance.
Ah, I've got to disagree. The Brits and French had the legal right under the Versailles Treaty to move into Germany soon after Hitler took office as Chancellor- -and did nothing. THAT is too tolerant!

but hell, who can tolerate a bully.
that's absolute bullshit! <vbg>

EXACTLY! You should have run for British PM in the early 1930s! :-)

" If a gov't plans an invasion and tells you the people will welcome your troops with flowers, you'd better batten down the hatches. For sure they're lying."

and i say, hell yes! they're lying through
their teeth and that's the absolute truth.

Know the first time I learned that? Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba. The Kennedy Admin ASSURED us the invaders would be welcomed with flowers and open arms!
We know how THAT turned out.
Every time time since, when I hear that, an alarm goes off.

drop your cocks and grab your socks,
it's daylight in the swamp

Rosie! I'm SHOCKED! Your mouth!
