And I would argue with you. :-)  See U.S. postal regulations, section 371.5,
at http://pe.usps.gov/text/Imm/immc3.html#S?oUq2f4wats.  The list of
countries the U.S. post office will cash US$ postal money orders from is not
huge, and it's kind of an odd mix (mostly small countries besides Japan and
Canada; probably because most other countries don't sell US$ postal money
orders), but it is indeed an official U.S.P.S. service.  Here's the list:

Albania
Anguilla
Antigua and Barbuda
Bahamas
Belize
British Virgin Islands
Canada
El Salvador ($500 max.)
Grenada
Guyana ($500 max.)
Japan
Montserrat
Peru
St. Christopher (St. Kitts) and Nevis
St. Lucia
St. Vincent and the Grenadines
Trinidad and Tobago

Incidentally, the U.S. post office can also sell you an international money
order that is payable in those countries (plus about a dozen others).
