This is strange. Pope Francis has visited the US resontly and talked with congress. He gave them such a speech about getting our shit together that our House Speaker, John Boehner, feels like he should resign.

I'm unsure what my overseas friends think about this (or if they really care) but I think this will help start a change here for the good (or at lest I hope).

I've heard that they put up scoreboards to compare the shootings whenver they happen. In truth, I'm not sure if that's a joke or not.

Politics: If it's your fault delegate it to a scapegoat and have them removed.

It's why I am not one for going into politics. Even though they give lifetime medical care for being in position and then leaving.

Eh, I don't know. There's a history of abusing US air-support in the region so it doesn't entirely surprise me. I'm not saying its right, but it doesn't really surprise me.
