response to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVOgUFcHhig Yeah you really know how to shit in ones cup of tea... I wish I'd never seen your video really, just further confirmation that history will repeat itself as it always has. The American dream to me, and I assume to other Euros, was a vision of a nation that could understand and avoid making such mistakes. Childhood fantasies that we overcome when subjected to the force of history and opinions such as yours. One thing I learned from the British Empire is that all empires fall, regardless of how much you can love them. "zsoakes" you are a truly disgusting human being. If you don't want to hear me point out this guy's idiocy I can say just as much with this music vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkV-of_eN2w ^^ So simple even a child can understand The game I'm playing: http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/g3/bells.htm

I'm not a US citizen and for the sake of argument it's not a good idea for me to go into such things, else I'd put off the audience that most needs to hear this sort of message.

right,w ell, americans like to hold the founding fathers up as paragons of virtue. They were great men who built a great country, no doubt, but they were men none the less and engaged in plenty of unethical acts themselves. I thnk they were great men, but hardly saints.

I guess I said that to make him or a listener understand in a way that they comparatively judge things. I'm well aware of the evolution of "freedom" in the US.

Don't pretend the founding fathers would have any problems with what he's saying in that video. They were slave owning, native killing, manifest destiny beleaving colonializers through and through. The claim hat they would be ashamed by what he is saying is stupid. Who do you think pushed to gain control of the west?
