Dom, if you have the misfortune to ever live there for a long period, you would be even more shocked at how brainwashed they are
When the 911 tragedy happened, many of them wanted to "Nuke Afghanistan".
I brought up the point (in a bar, which as we know isn't always the best place for lucid dialogue) that it would also kill all the civilians.
A couple of hours later, lots of them were leaving and one guy shouted out at the top of his voice "Hey you, you commie bar steward".
Well, I could have fallen off my bar stool for laughing
Their grip on reality, and the small matter of historical fact, makes you wonder what goes on in most peoples's heads there.
No, on second thoughts, best not to ponder the imponderables......
Bush, Clinton............ruling elite
If it wasn't for their Ivy League Universities and independent judiciary (remember when there were so many vacant spaces at a Clinton address to the Nation) there would be more unravelling than there is.
