President Reagan was elected on the promise of getting government off the backs of the people and now he demands that government wrap itself around the waists of the people.
There's a lot of peer pressure to not do positive stories out of Iraq... I think there's a sense that the administration got a pass during the hot days of war and now that the war is over it's time to even out the deck somewhat.
All mankind is now learning that these nuclear weapons can only serve to destroy, never become beneficial.
The world generally speaking is now drifting on a more and more devastating course towards the absurd target of extermination - or rather, to be more exact - of the northern hemisphere's towns, fields, and the people who have developed our civilization.
