So let me get this right, on April 22, 2017, Mr. Motley declares lying is ok under some circumstances.    I can live with that!

I appreciate the honestly and I'd agree with you if the Koreans had screamed and run away.   So far they haven't, and I don't think they will.  Way too early to be declaring this a victory.   

Do I think the President will use our military strength to improve our negotiating leverage, sure.   That would put the United States on a path that has been common behavior for..... ummm, how old is civilization?

Conservatives are realist/correct about the way things work.    That includes to the victor go the spoils, criminals are not large abused children, buyer beware, you will die too so leave me alone,  etc..   All true, realistic.

We all have morals Motley, they just aren't all the same.    I hope you remember the postive things I've said about those who defend our nation, including yourself.   (But it's not always about defense is it.)
