I'm sure that most US citizens are very nice people, but I'm not sure I'd like to live in a country in which almost half the population think that the world was created in 4004BC, in which several of the people behind me in the supermarket queue are likely to have lethal weapons in their pockets and which can elect George Bush twice. Oh, and Dan, I nearly forgot to mention, a country in which over a tenth of the population have no automatic access to health care, since you mention our NHS. And there's no need to invite me to stay here. I am doing.
