Yeh. I have a friend originally from Colorado and he drives fast and comfortably on ice, snow, driving rain- you name it. It's his contention that *if* something unexpected should pop up, he'll take care of it, no problem. Twice we have almost been hit, once close enough that we had to take to the grassy median. He doesn't understand why I won't ride with him anymore. True enough- he took care of it- but I'd rather drive defensively, not to say, wisely.

It's kind of analogous to how well men have been doing in this latest administration. Sure, if something unexpected should happen - someone doesn't respond in the manner projected, so that a 'small' nuke is set off, or someone is assassinated (hey! That wasn't supposed to happen!) or the economy is driven to its knees or global warming symptoms reach a critical phase- Sure, they'll take care of it. Right!
