I really dont feel sorry for Americans stuck in Lebanon

What made me mad was how CNN compared the US to countries in Europe, saying "they did it, why can't we?" Well, if one looks closely, one can see that there is an entire ocean of buffer zone, whereas Europe is a stone's throw away. Evacuating 25,000 people requires more than a few helicopters, so perhaps ships are being mobilized, which takes time. Then it takes time for them to sail across the ocean. I can only imagine them sitting there, it's been eight and a half minutes where are they???

I'm telling you, it doesn't matter if there were twelve oceans in between. It's the new Amercian mindset: "What is the government going to do for me?" "I'm a helpless victim".

And let's not forget the favorite: "It's George Bush's fault".
