In the mean time, we can always gaze back upon the "good old days" of the Reagan years, when the US could successfully maneuver nations into doing our bidding with the only kind of realpolitik that counts: an impressive military which can back up our reasonable "requests" for help.

Which is considerably better than the rampant navel-gazing going on in DC that we see happening now ...
