31. No you're a bigot because of this and this and this
Iraqi children exposed to the game of Baseball. Good or bad? That's up for debate, but the point is these children now have yet another avenue of recreation and development, that they never had before. In the past they would have had to focus on the Qu'ran, the Religion of Peace, or Saddam Hussein and his sons sponsored games to have "fun." Not anymore.

Where would these children end up if we left it in the hands of Saddam Hussein to educate, train, and teach what's right and wrong? Where would they end up? What would they be willing to do to show that hatred? A good majority of them would have been forced to the ways of the Jihadi, rather than the Democratihad (new word!).


You can see the father looking from behind as his son kisses the America Soldier, presumably in place of a "thank you" that the Iraqi child has yet to learn to say. Part of me wonders if the father, or the son, ever thought a day would come when such a thing would be allowed, let alone accepted by their peers.
