If that kind of attitude is what it takes to be an American, well being
an American must suck. Guess that means you must come complete with
"convenient" memory on how everyone has wronged you, and you have never
wronged anyone. Better scuttle back into your own little world quickly
before you get wronged again (except of course if there is someone's ass
you have a god given right to go kick in some other part of the world,
or someone else's politics you have a god given right to go interfere
with).
