Some of us in the United States would truly like to apologize for the actions of our politicians and to remind the world that many of us are actually sane, educated and moral people. Please remember that many of us are not simply Ugly Americans, just temporarily trapped here. ~ David McLarty, Rockwood, Tennessee, USA
Things are really getting this nasty.
Mr. McLarty, we stand with you.
