WAY TO GO SILVER!: According to the The Wall Street Journal(via Google News and Lileks), a dinner panel at the recent meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland engaged in a constant hammering of American policy, until one lone voice rose up in defense of the red, white, and blue: Ron Silver. Yes, the regular "West Wing" guest star who once played Alan Dershowitz in a movie was the only one in the room with the guts to stand up to the Euro-idiots. From the WSJ:
"“Ron Silver, the US actor and political activist, jumped up from a table across the room to retort that if it weren’t for the US, hundreds of thousands more civilians would have died in the Balkans, while Europe sat idly by. The US had no interest in that region other than humanitarian, he said. ‘We are not an imperial government, Mr. Cox,’ he said. ‘You know that, and everyone here knows that.’”
