...bristles when it actually gets some. But ride with the Guv in his Lincoln Navigator, and you find that even the chastened Ventura is more candid than 99% of pols. On the Cuban trade embargo he says what self-styled truth tellers like Bill Bradley don't: "It's stupid. Fidel's outlasted eight Presidents. Is it an ego thing? Do we have to wait for him to die?" He's the rare non-Democratic Governor who gives Clinton generous credit for the economy. Try getting George W. Bush to do that...

It wasn't very long ago that the tragedy of Kosovo occurred or that the Bosnians were butchered. Russia must be stopped from killing innocent men, women and children. All people have a right to express themselves and to strive to gain their independence. Haven't the East Timorese made progress in obtaining their freedom?
