>When it comes to the 2nd sentence (emphasis mine), I should not be surprised that you would make that statement. However, I am dissappointed. You of all people should not be so quick to stereotype and insult the entire American population. That was why I have refrained until now from posting in response to the insulting messages you and Tore made earlier regarding Americans. However, you have done it again. With insults like that, it is unproductive to agree, disagree, or even discuss anything you write and I think it is important to point that out.

Are Bill and Cecil not Americans (not to mention a few others whose messages I don't see)?

(with Cecil, however, we can argue; he's periodically aware of the different meaning of terms, of different ways things are laid out elsewhere; Bill, however, knows only Fox Noose)
(but then, it does amuse me to read this crossfire - believe me, once you drop any hope of defending your country from the image it has acquired throughout the world, life becomes easier, and one futile rolling of a stone up the hill becomes not just clearly futile, but also pointless and useless; as they say back home, "коме је суђено, и гаће му саме спадају" - whose destiny it is, their pants drop on their own)
