You have long been a prejudiced ranter. I think you just passed over into troll territory. I've opposed every war the U.S. has fought in my 43 year lifetime. (Yes I was involved in anti-vietnam-war activities at the age of eight.) But you provoke a strange atavistic urge to wave a flag in each hand while shouting at you "America, love it or leave it!".
