I'm not responsible for slavery, WWI or WWII, or Viet Nam. The Iraqi guy at work isn't responsible for 9/11, and I was prouder of the US before 9/11 than I am now. I didn't like the nickname "Shock and Awe" for blowing up parts of Baghdad along with the people living there. I don't like Bush, and I like Cheney even less. And I like Kerry just a teeny bit better than Bush. I don't like American cars. I don't like shoes that pinch my toes or people who squirt me with a garden hose. But it's nothing worth getting so pissed off about.
