I am reminded of what Tina Fey said after the "Freedom Fries" debacle: "The French are now renaming 'American Cheese' to 'Idiot Cheese'!" We can only hope that the "American Shepherd" campaign will be as successful in preparing young Americans for terror attacks as the "duck and cover" school films from the 1950's were. Because, after all, there's really nothing like 3/4 inches of particle board to shield you from 35 megatons of explosives....
