Sad events in Galicia.

So American teenagers wearing T - Shirts that say "FUCK Bush" are being
treated warmy in Spain.

Perhaps those teenagers would like to live in Kosovo where Americans stopped
the slaughter of civillians while Europe "debated" the issue, or perhaps
they would have enjoyed day-to-day life under the Saddam regime where rape
was used as a toture technique.

Americans are strong, brave and beautiful, enjoying a level of moral
superiority never achieved in history.

Wherever and whenever world citizens face humanitarian crises, Americans
will be their to help using persuasion, pressure or paratroopers.

This responsibility has been thrust upon us.
