re: in a hyperbolic mood
There are people, even in our own country, who dance a jig with every setback suffered by our military or with every blow to the attempts to bring freedom and prosperity to the Iraqi people. People who will take any side, as long as it is in opposition to "Amerika." I saw the same kind of people years ago rejoicing when Saigon fell, and they literally danced. I was there. And before you ask, no I did not get their names and addresses, although I would not be surprised to find some of them teaching in that same university today.
And yes, I ran into a few overseas, too.
I'll admit I haven't had a great month so far. I spent my fiftieth birthday trapped in a blacked-out airport, and got my first invite to join the AARP in the mail today.
