Have you ever heard the news from outside of this "great" land of ours? You know, varying points of view on the days events. AmeriKKKan public opinion is formed basically by watching the same news broadcast on all channels and swallowing the "facts" as presented. In other free nations, people hear various viewpoints, discuss without calling one another names (like "left-wing" which isn't a derogatory connotation in other countries), and then they form opinions based on thought processes. AmeriKKKans just eat their garbage and shit it out. I'm quite sure that you are one of those who in other circumstances deride the US media for it's slanted and narrow presentation of "facts." Can't have it both ways. Believe what you need to believe about me to justify your position- nobody likes me; I'm a contrarian, a curmudgeon, whatever suits you. Yes, I've always resisted the red, white, and blue military dictatorship. When we stop attacking country after country that refuse to build McDonalds on every corner, I'll learn to live in peace in this land. Incidentially, my views are a little more complicated than you make them out to be; I describe myself as a fiscal conservative and a social liberal. More of a libertarian than anything. SO know you know and can stop wasting your time guessing and accusing.
