[Im Your Huckleberry]

I wasn't kidding. I'm filled with hate for 99% of the rest of this planet these days.

Every day I open the paper, every new outrage, every new insult, every comment that just reeks of envy and jealousy and hatred for us; jealousy and envy for how powerful we are, how good we have it - it makes me hate 'em even more.

Just when I think my ire has reached its threshold, some foreigner in some pissant nation opens his gaping pie-hole and spews forth some new insult to my intelligence and my nation, and my threshold pushes into the red zone.

They're all filthy, degenerate, boy-buggering, European rotters and the rest are simply third-world parasites, and they can all burn in hell.

Gimme an army big enough, and put me in charge for one week.

That's how I feel right now.

Trust me -- I didn't think you were kidding. You certainly conveyed a lot of passion. I don't get a lot of the down right rottenness with which Americans are viewed and treated at this point in time. As much as various people try to explain the "other culture", most of it boils down to jealousy, hatred and a complete lack of understanding with regard to Americans. I'm tired of it too.

Anymore, when I hear about French Canadians booing 12 year old kids, or booing our National anthem, or the scads of other nasty treatments meted out these days, I say to myself, "Screw them -- payback is a BiTXX." As a nation, we are good natured, patient, tolerant and positive -- and we've got a long memory and can be quite aggressive in delivering payback after we've reached the "tipping point". I think many of us have reached that point.
