Better yet what about alternatives for trite, over-used politicians? Like Keld, I don't see the necessity for using the funny face to indicate this is Dane tongue in cheek. But I do ask our expert on American foreign relationship from Wisconsin to give us another phrase to describe Americans using muscle to protect their own vested interest. It is one of those phrases the rest of the world needs, somewhat like slop-bucket. -- David Tilbrook {inset, root44, mcvax, qtlon}!ist!dt Imperial Software Technology, London England
