LOL! You tell 'em!
I saw an interview w/one anquished man who cried out, "We need help. Where are the Americans?"
Not 'Where is the UN?' Not even where is his own government, but "Where are the Americans?" They know who they can count on.
Indeed.
Another point that I bought up and neglected to post is that I mentioned that the Marines and sailors heading the relief effort are largely 'backwards red state hillbillys' that 'haven't got passports' and have 'no understanding of the outside world'.
Hell, between the 'War On Terror' and relief efforts in Afghanistan, Kurdistan, Uzbekistan, Iraq, Liberia, Haiti, Indonesia, Bangaladesh, Thailand, and all points North, South, East, and West -- we've got 21-year olds from Paducah KY in the service more world-travelled than any fat liberal wanker who writes checks to the World Wildlife Fund and contentedly thinks they're cosmopolitan without even having to leave their apartment in Manhattan NYC.
Marines don't show passports, but some young fellows in the service could write an updated lyric sheet to country crooners Hank Snow & Johnny Cash placename tribute song 'I've Been Everywhere'.
OMG......just OMG.
