Ol' Bobert, the feelin's mutual, darlin'. I also think Dicho brought up a good point; the government, by and large, is US, but, those at the top are not, imo. They are the elite, big money corporate cats (now that seems to be a real slur on felines!) who have Bush in their pockets. Dicho is right, though, it is the rank and file who have to be convinced otherwise. Geeziz, I keep getting the feeling I'd better start doing those op/ed pieces, again! Dammit!*bg*
