Happy (almost) Birthday, NATO!

You'll be 62 years old on April 4, and Mike Huckabee still doesn't know how you work. Not to single out Huckabee, though - Sarah Palin doesn't know either. Poor Haley Barbour seems to think you're interchangable with the Arab League. Is it really possible that three of the people flirting with applying for the job whose requirements include understanding and coordinating with NATO really not know what it is or how it works? I think it's more likely that they think YOU don't understand what NATO is and how it works, and they're trying to scare you with the image of President Obama callously throwing American troops at the mercy of some Canadian or Brit. But I think that you have a brain, and can read.
