In the words of the wise Tonto,
What do you mean "we", Kemosabe.
May the gods preserve and defend me from self-righteous altruists; I can defend myself from my enemies and my friends.

A favourite cartoon.
The Lone Ranger and Tonto were crossing the desert.
At the end of a day's ride, they set up their tent and soon both men fell sound asleep.

Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says,
"Kemo Sabe. Look towards the sky. What you see?"

The Lone Ranger replies "I see millions of stars."

"And what does that tell you?" asks Tonto.

The Lone Ranger ponders this for a minute and then says
"Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically speaking, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.
Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning.
Theologically, the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.
Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
Why, what does it tell you, Tonto?"

Tonto fixes the Lone Ranger with a steely glare and replies
"It tells me that that someone's stolen our tent."

Alabama Republicans on Tuesday voted decisively to nominate Roy Moore, a former state Supreme Court judge, for a U.S. Senate seat, delivering a rebuke to President Donald Trump and the GOP establishment that supported his rival.

Mr. Moore was declared the victor over Sen. Luther Strange by the Associated Press in a runoff primary election to choose a successor to Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Speaking to his supporters after conceding the race, Mr. Strange said the president wasn’t responsible for his defeat. “It’s not his fault,” he said.

The vote came after a bitter primary campaign that pitted Mr. Trump against many in his own political base—including former White House strategist Steve Bannon —who supported Mr. Moore.
