However, that attitude has not occurred just since Bush. The US supports any regime fair or foul that will do business - ie, allow the US to take out the natural resources - . The US will supply munitions for the regime to oppress the people, so long as it gets the oil. The regime gets rich, the US gets their oil, the people are oppressed and lash out at America for oppressing them. This is a very old story, not just Bush. “we’re arrogant and do whatever the heck we want”

This place and the Spy "Museum" make me furious.

I cannot believe there are so many hidden costs - $1 for the OK Corral and there's also a $5 fee for the audio tour. All of that on top of the $18 entry fee?? No thanks! BUT, I learned the tickets are half price today, May 23. Sorry, but us DC folk have been spoiled with the free museums we've had for years. Now whenever I have to pay to enter a museum I have a mini-fit. HAHHA! Great review, but after reading about your experience, I have decided not to visit.
