sanfranchicky: Why do you think so, Yubba? I am not disagreeing with you, just want to know why?
Oh, and thank you for not attempting to change the subject of my thread, unlike SOME people...
My observations, and that of many are that the Americans have for countless years set themselves up as 'policemen' of the world. It's extremely difficult to find anyone who can honestly say 'l love Americans'............apart from other Americans, of course.
The majority of people don't like the police............except when they have a problem they want them to assist them with, but the difference with the police and the 'police' is that the 'police' always seem to get into world arguments even if they are not needed.
I was always told as a child that the French don't like the English, when l asked why l was told that they are too much like us!. In the case of American people they always seem to 'rub' people the wrong way, everything is better, everything is bigger. Now, it is, Americans have made a better mess of the World economy than anyone else and they also heve done it big time. So yes, Bigger and Better!!
(and Thankyou for this kiss, if you were closer l would give you a real one!)
