49. I hear you - we are in the same boat
People over here strongly disagreed with the Iraq War. But over here as well, people are dumbed down by teevee, drive ever more SUVs that never go off the highway and are pans in the claws of big money. We have had a couple tough economic years, layoffs all the time, but banks reap huge earnings all along.
The news on the US is clearly taken from wire services, and things like Plame or PNAC get no coverage either. The torture bill (the current revisiting of it, that is) is not in the news.

US imperialism will come to a stop some time - as with each empire, when it overreaches. The US has been doing that for a couple of years now.

I do think that Europeans are coming out of all this more unified than before. And we would come and reciprocate what you did for us in WOII if need be.

We are all in the same boat.
