1. Yes, but "try it some time"? No thanks
They don't even understand the concept, so there's really no point. Just let the Dems take care of it since the Republics don't care about diplomacy.

2. A copy of this needs to go to Ms. Rice.
Diplomacy is telling someone to go to Hell in a way that they are looking forward to the trip.
