"Quit poutin', kid. Those Beanie Babies were probably made by kids about your age over in China. So be grateful there's no jobs over here. Geeze, you'd think you'd never seen a heavily armed man pacing up and down the aisles of your classroom before."
"Oh, meester, meester! I just LOVE my Beanie Baby! Hopefully somb Amerycan meellionaire got a beeg tax write off for donating thees overpriced pile of rags!"
(Disclaimer: "Beanies for Baghdad" isn't really a bad idea. In fact, it's a worthy cause. But it's simply not going to be enough. It's not going to make these kids' folks hate us any less for the chaos we've dumped onto their country or make up for all the death and animosity and years of future violence that our poorly planned toppling of their government has brought.)
