Colin, I have never once thought I was being personally attacked in this - I don't know where you get that at all. You are not getting the brunt of my offense. You did however, start bringing up many of the issues to begin with. It's natural for most American to want to defend their country, especially when they feel crap is being said about it. We do have the sense that we ARE the government. Most Americans still feel they have power to change their government'd direction anytime they decide to do so. We do not yet have to bow to some group of elites who tell us what to do.
