Michael Novak has a thought provoking three part ((#1), (#2), and (#3)) piece on the root of the recent arguments between American and Europe. Me, ahm jus a simple rednek consuhvativ, I uhsly jus say them all You-Ro-Pe-Uns purely suck, and we all kicks ass.

Mr. Novak has a much more thoughtful commentary. His conclusion is worth pondering, "Despite their particular origin, furthermore, our common values have important meaning for all cultures universally, as many in other cultures have long been testifying. Others may not accept these common values wholesale, or in the same way that we do, but nothing in these common values belongs solely to us. Like all things human, they both have a particular historical origin, and also they are part of the common heritage of humankind."
