Ironically, I suspect that support for the Multilateral Force idea was undermined less by the idea that Germany would have access to our nukes, than by the idea that France would.

st barbara Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Re: We've Got the Missiles peace to determine... While we are having this "quote fest" of Lehrer I just thought that i'd mention that I received from a friend of mine the other night as a christmas present "The Remains Of Tom Lehrer" on CD. It seems to contain just about everything he ever recorded; from the classics like "We Will All Go Together When We Go", and "The Vatican Rag" to the stuff he did for "The Electric Company" such as "L-Y" and "Silent E" ! Including the song that almost got him arrested in Australia ,"Be Prepared" ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
