Originally posted by Fljotsdale: Point made, John D. I guess I misunderstood what you were saying! Also, I have not read all posts on this. However (*in small voice*) I still think American Govt. is *ham-fisted* inasmuch as they seem to think that what is ok for them is not ok for anyone else. I am NOT getting at Americans, here, just the Govt. If it's any consolation, I think the British Govt. stinks as well! I think ALL Government stink! *Ponders* Shall I become an Anarchist?

I believe it was Winston Churchill that said democracy is the worst form of govt. except for all the rest.
As long as we got people running them all govts. will pull some pretty bonehead moves. I think is the intentions(sp?) that need to be looked at. Right or wrong with our position in the world it's natural to be wary (sp?). But, the vast majority of the american people are live and let live. There are fringe groups on BOTH sides of the spectum here.
