It seems to me, some times here, when people feel as tho someone might be disagreeing with some of their ideals, that that person might be claiming a moral high ground and that while no claim is written, they tend to assume it since they can't really intelectully defend their posisition. they then "attack the messenger", as oppossed to giving open minded thought to the points raised. Perhaps they are so busy with life and getting ahead in America that they don't really have the time to ponder their veiws. or perhaps they have not had a chance to mature their outlook. perhaps they are just young, and after having a few more "life experiances" they will consider becoming "more enlightened"? Hopefully. > I *will* claim that (too) many Americans are hyper-sensitive to *any* > criticism of their country. I wonder how many of those "hyper-sensitive" have served it the Military of their country? and will you consider that if they had served, don't they have a "right" to be sensitive? and by that same measure, don't the ones that have _not_ served, but could have, given up the right to hyper sensitivity?
