I loathe America, and what it has done to the rest of the world.

She and Clinton both overuse the pronoun "I".....kinda like they're stuck on themselves, aren't they?

Isn't that what they call a "warthog"?

One thing about leftists is that they absolutely DO NOT UNDERSTAND psyops-- it has the same effect on them that it is intended to have on the enemy. Does that tell us anything?

I was tipped into uncontainable rage by a report on Channel 4 News about "friendly fire", which included footage of what must have been one of the most horrific bombardments ever filmed. But what struck home hardest was the subsequent image, of a row of American warplanes, with grinning cartoon faces painted on their noses. Cartoon faces, with big sharp teeth.

It is grotesque. It is hideous. This great and powerful nation bombs foreign cities and the people in those cities from Disneyland cartoon planes out of comic strips. This is simply not possible. And yet, there they were.

Others have written eloquently about the euphemistic and affectionate names that the Americans give to their weapons of mass destruction: Big Boy, Little Boy, Daisy Cutter, and so forth.

For a moment, I though this was satire and was waiting for her to spring the "Surprise! I was actually talking about the Pacific theatre in WW2." Then I was looking to see if there was a 1945 date on the essay and this was some female version of Lord Haw-Haw.

Yeesh.

My anti-Americanism has become almost uncontrollable. It has possessed me, like a disease. It rises up in my throat like acid reflux,

Solid proof that liberalism is a mental disease.

What upsets her the most is that America is a nation self-governed. Elites can't abide that the people actually have their say in America.

"Saigon" does not sound one bit French. So how is it a "French colonial name"?

Sai Gon is in no way of French derivation nor origin.It is still the name of the city. Thanh Pho Ho Chi Minh is the name of the larger district, sort of Ho Chi Minh Metropolitan Area and includes Sai Gon and numerous other towns and some countryside, sort of like Miami-Dade in Florida. Here's a quickie for you http://www.vietscape.com/travel/saigon/. I don't know how to put a link in this so just cut and paste.
