Oh, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Want to talk nukes? Let's talk Pakistan. What are the rough, tough Republicans doing about the state that spread nuclear technology to Iran, North Korea, and elsewhere?
Sweet fuck all, is what.
Stop the nonsense. Whether a regime is led by someone "rational," etc., is obviously subjective, which let's you define what regimes we should negotiate with and which we shouldn't according to your whim, or to be more precise, according to the whim of your favoured pundits. And surprise, surprise, you then find, via circular reasoning, that "the left" is always in favour of negotiating with the wrong people, while the right always negotiates with the right people.
Such as, for example, Pakistan.
