I Looked Into Mr. Putin's Eyes, And

Remember The Words Of Chairman Mao: 'it's Always Darkest Before It's Totally Black.'.

He Was A Superb Military Officer But He Was Also An Extraordinarily Gifted Politician. That He Was An Unusually Open, Honest And No-nonsense Politician Did Not Make Him Unsuited For The Profession, Only Uncommon. In Uniform And In Politics Barry's Purpose Was Always The Defense Of Freedom. And Nobody Before Or Since Managed The Task More Ably Or More Colorfully Than Barry Goldwater.

What I Don't Know Is What The Unexpected Might Be.

We Have A Lot Of Work To Do And I‘m Afraid That It‘s A Very Hard Struggle, Particularly Given The Situation On The Iraq/pakistan Border.

My Patriotism And My Conscience Required Me To Support It And To Engage In The Debate Over Whether And How To Fight It.
