It is irritating when you see someone claiming another country as his location, bashing your own country when there are quite enough issues of a local nature to be addressed....Personally, I think Americans (not all of us) have the image of the "snooty French" I think you are making a wonderful case to have spain replace France. I know that doesnt matter to you. Anyway...pick and gripe all you want, every day as more info comes out there is less and less pointing to Bush being the bad guy so it really doesnt matter.


well, if i took some moral high ground, i didnt notice it and i certainly didnt do it on purpose. i was just voicing my opinion. i do pay attention to the things happening here in spain, but i find it a little inconsistent to discuss them in this forum since nobody would understand (or care) about them.

sadly the us is pretty much grabbing all the headlines when it comes to political and ideological discussion right now. so its unavoidable that it becomes the center of discussion. personally, i think the world bank and the imf are more interesting cases of argumentation of domination of the poor nations via capitalism, but thats another story, isnt it?

oh, and i dont think im snotty, i just happen to be right about everything... ok, that was a joke magik [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
