The ever interesting Tom Maguire informs me that I must be Captain Archer — or at least according to the Pew Research Center now that they’ve divided Americans into nine political viewpoints, one of which is:
Enterprisers are highly patriotic and strongly pro-business, oppose social welfare and overwhelmingly support an assertive foreign policy. This group is largely white, well-educated, affluent and male – more than three-quarters are men.
It could only be more me if they tossed in that the men were mostly middle aged, out of shape, married to a wonderful wife, volunteered with the boy scouts, and still had most of their hair.
But the esteemable Mr. Maguire, despite having a hard to spell last name (I want to make him Celtic) continues to inform, with a look at Tom Friedman’s look at the problem of nuclear proliferation in North Korea and Iran, and how it isn’t our fault, well, not directly anyway. I’m sure that the reflexive America bashers will pick up on how it really is our fault because we’re just so darn powerful and bossy that it’s our fault that China and Europe are free riding on us and shirking their responsibilities. You know what I say – polarize the armor and load the photon torpedoes cause we’re taking out the garbage, with or without the Chinese and Europeans.
