Considering I'm the only person in the U.S. that Iron Butt didn't piss off on his way out... (Ok, my wife likes you too
)
Americans (U.S., not North, Central or South) are so sheltered from the rest of the world and poorly educated (both in school and current events reporting) most have no chance to get a different view of the world than that offered by the U.S. media.
I'm one of those idiots who voted for Bush twice. But I voted based on domestic issues. I could give a $h!t about his foreign policy prior to Iraq. Now, he's F'ed us over on domestic policy AND gotten us into Iraq (based on advice from people who were in his Dad's administration
).
Oops. We screwed up.
BTW, if I don't like John Howard, does that make EVERYONE fro Oz an a$$hole? Of course not. Try not to be so closed minded and equate everyone from the U.S. with Bush and Iraq.
So, how much DOES an EK Capt. make?
