Well, if you are going to grow up, get on with it. 200 years is a bit long. America seems to be arrested in a permanent state of narcissistic juvenilism, if not going even further into pre-adolescence -- just what we need, more propaganda about preparing for sneak attacks from the enemies of freedom. I hear the Americans win the Battle of Britain again too. (I thought Robert Taylor did that a long time ago. It does get really tiresome).
