I think there's $2 billion that can quickly and easily be cut from the budget/US deficit.. the US government wouldn't want to be charged with child pornography, child molestation, contributing to the delinquency of minors, indecency or any of the other multitudinous charges that qualify if this happened on US soil. How can we say that children in any other country deserve to be treated less than our own and still hold up our heads with American pride? (rhetorical question - the answer is we can't/couldn't and shouldn't).
Our country was not founded on double-standards, we shouldn't condone double standards now (as in if anyone BUT the US government tried to get away with this behavior (not that we would), we'd be prosecuted to the full extent of the law). Being the government isn't a good enough reason for an exception. I AM the people and government representatives are to serve the interests and needs of the people (you and me), not their own bank accounts.
