Out of the mouths of babes...

"In an op-ed for The New York Times, Bulgarian political scientist Ivan Krastev argues that most Europeans can hardly recognize America anymore as the once shining city on the hill that guides freedom-loving people everywhere, as Ronald Reagan so eloquently put it. Now, he says, Europeans look at America and see their own reflection."

    Very common comment from visitors all around the world down here south of the border. "What happened to your country? It used to be the one place people could look to and find hope. Now it's such a fascist police state.

    All they have to do is a. emulate the old USA and b. but this time teach rights and responsibilities of citizenship. Be nice to have some place some where pick up the torch.
