Shades of Bill Darby, another U.S. Army Ranger, riding off into the sunset astride his trusty Harley Davidson. But this time Sen. Tom Cotton is not in any combat but the rhetorical kind. He continues to speak out against this administration's sleazy deal--excuse us, nuclear disarmament agreement--with Iran's mullahs. To quote the senator and wartime veteran:
"We've given the terror-sponsoring Iranian regime enough concessions at the risk of our security. We should not further subsidize its enrichment . . .", this time by buying its radioactive waste. If some of us had our way, it could just as well swallow it. So let's hear it for the Bill Darbys, Tom Cottons, and every other star-spangled, red-white-and-blue American who won't hew to this administration's line--or engage in euphemisms instead of plain speech. Or plain dealing.
