So do I where my country is concerned. I won't call some of your comments about Canada in this thread lies, but you do seem to have a lot of false notions about us.
And Splum, pointing your country's faults isn't always "attacking", even if the person doing the pointing out resides in a foreign country. Sometimes it is, but quite often (as is the case with a few of my fellow canuckleheads here) it's done in the spiirit of the conversation. Trashing others' country of origin and shouting about how superior the US is and what an elite human being you are for being a US citizen and so forth really does just make you look bad. It shines a very negative light on the rest of your country as well.
Thankfully most Americans I know aren't that way.
That said, I do believe that Iran's nuclear facilities are not long for this world.
