p>These are generalizations, but "talks" is a generic noun. Let's hear examples of what might work. Nixon, Kissinger offered what, exactly, to the Chinese? br> -- M Scott Horn br> Akron, Ohio /p> p> Please ask Mr. Tucker what planet he is on. We according to everyone lost the Vietnam war even though we could have won it. As for China, Nixon opened it for what. They are still our enemy and are stealing our technology (military and otherwise). Finally, we did reach out to Iran before in previous administrations with no success. If Mr. Tucker really thinks we can deal with Muslim nations, please show the evidence. They do not negotiate in good faith with unbelievers. Please look at the Koran and history. I would like some successful examples of this. The negotiators are dead, or the broke the treaty (surprise) or are no longer in power because of it. br> -- Joseph D'Ambrosia /p> p> I wish to congratulate you folks on your coup. Who would have ever thought that you could get a devoted denizen of the Daily Kos to write a column for the Spectator . And he does so without the profanity that infuses the vast majority of the comments over there with their flavor. Splendid job, y'all. br> -- Ken Shreve
