Indeed. I get three times the opportunity to be fiercely patriotic than most Americans do. And when I am not spending my time doing that, I’m a good and loyal ally to our mates in Australia, Turkey and the United States of America.

What I've noticed about my (semi) fellow Europeans (I have dual citizenship) is that however right-minded their thinking, their heads are stuck completely up their a$$es when it comes to actual events on the ground and the meaning behind them. That MEP so much in the press for his denunciation of Brown's economic policies is still an Obama supporter, although what he said about Brown is even more true about Obama. Europeans are blinkered, in the true sense of the word.
