...well as characters. Certainly nobody went to see Guarding Tess. In Absolute Power, you were the bad guys, and the movie was dreadful. And need I bring up First Kid? (I thought I needn?t.) I admit freely that it bothered me when Xander Berkeley turned traitor in Air Force One (although he?s an underrated character actor who was the best non-silicon-based thing in the Pamela Anderson vehicle Barb Wire). So if we can believe what we hear -- that you?d rather see Janet Reno naked than testify before Ken Starr?s grand jury or any other...

...goals. They only took the bold step of talking to the enemy. "I am a British citizen and will remain one," says Billy Hutchinson, leader and chief negotiator of the Progressive Unionists.

...cost of being labeled a traitor (by extremists on the right) and an opportunist (by the dogmatic left), he was ready to go a long way to accommodate the Arabs. Yet he was one of the first to foresee that in order for the Jews to avoid a showdown with the Arabs or to survive such a showdown, they must set up a shadow state and a shadow military force...

...differing kinds of loyalty are certainly colored by the reporter's attachment to the person. I had the good fortune to meet Dave Powers and admired his unswerving loyalty, and I once met George Stephanopoulos and, having admired his intelligence and commitment, am reluctant to label him a traitor for being willing to ask the same important questions in public that he used to ask of the President in private. But whatever the case, these three individuals highlight for us the different circumstances of loyalty. I would argue that instead of loyalty giving way to principle or vice versa, loyalty...
