There weren't any such exigencies at the time. Now, of course, it's a different story. But the current exigencies don't seem to have affected him either.

I'm sure he was strongly in favor of Mom and apple pie as well.
He was always a specialist in the hazy glow of good feeling. Whenever he got specific -- and every so often he did -- it always sounded bad. I seem to remember something about 'smart wars'. Or was that 'smart cars'? I dunno which is worse, really.
Feelgood stuff like this is the background radiation of electioneering. Nobody over the age of three should have given it a second thought. The problem was that people *wanted* to believe. Clap, or Tink will die!
And what's with this 'words words words' trope? Isn't that kinda disparaging our collective product here, Comrade?
