From my observations there is little servile about Americans ;-)

Mr. Churchill obviously wasn't thinking about the effect of television on the populace when he said that. We don't need to be servile in order to find ourselves being subjected to tyranny. We only need to be misled. And the fact that a large percentage of people in the US believed (and many still believe), that the Saddam Hussien was responsible for what happened on Sept. 11, 2001, and that that was the reason we invaded Iraq, is proof that the people in this country are capable of being misled on a massive scale.

My only concern is the lack of decent politicians to vote for.

And then there is that.
