Of course, we like some politicians, we hate some..and overall, we want that they solve ALL our prolbmes.. and when I say ALL I do really MEAN ALL our problems. Europe is BLame the politican land.
I tried to explain that to an amaerican and he almost got crazy... "if you are not in Europe you will not understand" I finished...because it makes no sense... if you think in logical terms.
The mere suggestion that the President might not have the best interests of the [people of the] United States at heart can make most American heads explode.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. You don't need extraordinary evidence to convince a European that their government is up to no good, but you do with an American. And a fair number of comments on Jerome's diary are saying as much: even after all that we know Bush has done in the past 6 years, it seems to be an open question whether a groundswell of outrage can be generated in the American public. Because to admit what Bush has done flies in the face of the myths that underpin America as a nation and define Americans as citizens. It is a question of faith, if being American is a religion the Constitution is scripture and the President is the High Priest, and people will rather deny the evidence before their eyes than deny their faith. Those whom the Gods wish to destroy They first make mad. -- Euripides
