Regarding the moral good
America gets blasted regularly for its nationalist, unilateral and
sometimes arrogant attitudes. Many times we deserve it. But a fella has
to pick a team after all.
If Iraq had a shuttle program and lost 7 crew members to an accident
like that of the Columbia, I’ll bet George W. and the American people
would send our heartfelt condolences, even as we prepare for war. We
most likely wouldn’t cheer and call it “vengeance from God.” Just a
hunch.
