Normally I agree with Mr. Pruden, but I think he's wrong here.

Those poor ba****** on the receiving end of American aid supplied by the US Military are going to remember who gave them what for a long, long time.

If anyone in this Administration has any talent for long term thinking, there are already a few CIA types hanging out with the locals making sure that kids get food, medicine, and warm clothes.

A few Green Beret teams wouldn't be a bad idea either, especially if they have local language skills.

We don't have to reach all of these people, we only have to reach enough of them who realize that what they've been hearing in their mosques is mostly bull****.

Their Imams are screaming 'death to America' while the US Navy is flying in food, water, and medical supplies. I'll lay you dollars to donuts that pretty soon some Islamofascist whackjob Imam is going to 'forbid' anyone from taking American aid.

That will hopefully be the straw that breaks the water buffalos back.

Wow, I must be feeling optomistic tonite. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be back to normal in the morning.

Nothing wrong with that.

At least until next Tuesday . . .
