You're American I guess it gives you more rights than me to be critical of the system that you live under.

I think everyone in the world no matter who or where theyre from has a right to be critical of whatever and whoever they want...but it still doesnt mean theyre right ...doesnt mean theyre wrong..
my point , in my comment regarding whether we all eat up what you say like candy, is simply.. not everyone ...in fact most do not , like what you say about America. I think you have to agree with that statement. And furthermore, just because you say things that do bash america,..it doesnt mean youre right..by the same token, flag waving and patriotic fervor doesnt mean all that much either if you only do it cause you agree with what the president says or just happen to like the party in office at the time. Sometimes the most patriotic thing to do is tell your government what its doing is wrong..

Does that mean you're not right about the American government treating you like an idiot ?

“A man’s wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense” (Proverbs 19:11).

A man's patience gives him wisdom.

To overlook an offence would be a waste of time and is being foolish one's self !

[hortysir]

Patience is not ingrained. You have to learn it. Hence wisdom.
Overlooking an offense is better than offending.

Overlooking an offence is taking the ostrich tactic of dealng with a dangerous situation. Ostriches bury their heads in the sand while they leave their arse end exposed.

How are the happy snaps going, have you and the son-ion-law sorted through those confidential war pics of WMD's in Iraq yet ?

You really do expect me to believe your story and just take it as fact that the photos will be or are too sensitive to show.

I believe Im right that Bush always appears to be calling the american people stupid when he says " what the American people don't understand..."

And what is love?

What can we learn from Christ on this?

hmmm.. I don't really think of people as enemies, more like people I know I'll never trust due to their actions in my personal life. So.. I guess I just say f**k 'em and get on with my own life. If I can make the world a better place by warning someone about them I will. Sounds like a logical way to treat enemies, even if I do say so myself...
