“More than anything else, culture defines a country. “
Unless, of course, it is the United States. We are not allowed to celebrate our own culture.
The choice is that of the Scots. Hope it goes well, however they vote.

If they want independence, that is their right. And the UK seems increasingly like a historical anachronism.
No one has made an argument on behalf of a country called UK. That is something to consider for this week’s looming referendum.

THAT is exactly what I thought when I read that.
United States’ can’t have its’ culture lest we offend some foreigner.
I also thought Sean really reached out there saying people all over the world know Scottish culture
well except for kilts whiskey and scones. St Andrews for some

Starting to more clearly understand the Jeopardy parody skits where Sean Connery is portrayed dumb-as-a-rock.
Mr. GQ: good looks, low IQ.

May beat what Canada has been doing.
Bending over backward to try Quebec in, probably would have been better off letting them go years ago.

More than anything else, culture defines a country. Unless, of course, it is the United States. My first thought as well.

I remember on one of the Scotland episodes of Rick Steves'
Travels in Europe program, he spoke with a Scotsman about the national identity of Scots. Rick said "so you consider yourself Scottish first, and British second?" The Scot answered "I consider myself Scottish first and Scottish second."
I guess it's a Scottish thing and we wouldn't understand.

Quebec has substantial autonomy. Apart from hard sovereigntists, few in Quebec evidence enthusiasm for leaving Canada.
On the other hand, Scotland could make it alone.

I am always amazing by the selfish people that think no people have a right to self determination by being their own independent country yet...call themselves ‘conservatives’.
