The freakin' irony is killin' me!!

Full article Here

Ok, you know if you read my blog that I am both passionate about politics and soccer. I read this story on Demhoo today stating correctly that the US National team bus will not bear our countries colors or its flag. I tend to agree with this descision based on the fact that we are simultaneously the the most caring and most hated nation on earth. In my heart though, this troubles me. How lame is it that our players can't be publicly proud of their country for fear of being shot at or blown up en-route to a game or practice? Before you even think it, NO, its not the US government's fault that idiots with explosives and impotence issues need to get off by commiting acts of terror to justify some lunatic idea that they are being opressed by the USA. Further it is certainly not our soccer player's fault and they are being punished for it...No, actually every American soccer fan is being punished for it. It saddens me that we live in this kind of world, but we do. So say a prayer for those guys and the men gaurding them this summer. They are going to need all they can get!
