They are a country that is tiny compared to us, with a fraction of the population we have and yet they have the guts to have their own independent foreign policy unlike us - with our gutless politicians, the foreign policy is a case of pointing a finger at the USA and saying "I'm with stupid"... regardless of whether US policy is good for us or not. It sickens me. I wish we were more like NZ.
