Pat Robertson's Foreign Policy

Life would be so much easier if we could just adopt Pat Robertson's foreign policy, which can be summed up in one simple sentence:

KILL ALL THE OPPRESSIVE DICTATORS!
Simple. Direct. Easy to understand.

Skip Rumsfeld's wordsmithing. Forget Halliburton's profiteering. Bag the billions in U.S. tax money. Let's just cut to the heart of the matter. If we think you might have Communistic tendencies or that you might be oppressing your people, we're gonna kill ya'. Plain and simple. No questions. No debate. You're done.

You know, the Ayatollah Khomeini had a similar idea when dealing with Salman Rushdie. You write something that pisses us off, we're gonna get you. Tony Soprano deals with this stuff simply and easily every week on HBO. Send a couple of guys over and it's all taken care of.

Saves a lot of time, energy, and brain power.

Of course, Robertson's genius is no surprise to us Washington state voters. After all, he won our 1988 Republican Presidential Primary!
