A lot of people, including myself, would have liked the "Pennsylvania Solution" to have succeeded. It's appalling how one miscreant can cause such disorder in the world's polity. If there was a reason for the reduction in the US' political reach, that would be it. The US doesn't need to stand on other country's necks, any more than on US citizens'.
