>>You did not. You beat around the bush, like any politician who tries to avoid admitting that he has not counter arguments. You did not write down a single argument backed up with facts.

>>>No, I am not saying that Americans as individuals are better...what I AM saying is that this is the greatest nation in the world.

>>I know it hurts too much to admit that that image is scattered to pieces. Hey, don't shoot the messenger.

>>>Finally, I don't belong to the Tea Party. So much for your superficial conclusions.

>The Tea Party is way further out on the fringe than Kevin is.
