That's gratitude for you!

"Bush offers help to Indonesia quake victims"

Earlier the AP news story title said the U.S. "vows" support to Indonesia. Isn't it amazing that Indonesia denied our use of their airspace for our pilots' training (forcing some to be grounded, because pilots must train a minimum amount), yet when they experience another natural disaster, we're right there with assistance? What nation would continually offer a helping hand after being questioned, criticized, and then spat on? (And that's just by the UN. The real fun starts when the aid recipients complain about how we're helping them.)

Only America. Only America is expected to respond to every major disaster across the globe, then turn the other cheek and smile when we're insulted for doing no more than trying to help.
