Don't any of you remeber when i made SF an honorary american? Jesus, typical american memory, though.
SF, i think you've got it all wrong about americans. From where i stand i can see that there are a lot of very intelligent, compassionate and hard working americans.
There are also a whole lot of greedy, shortsighted, xenophobic, racist, discriminatory, belligerent, jingoistic, self-righteous/insecure(great combo!), selfish, spiteful, hateful, sheeplike, and materialistic people here too.
I think that sometimes you give us too much credit. America has always worshipped the almighty dollar bill. Don't you think it would be more accurate if we wrote "In the dollar we trust" on our churches instead of "In god we trust" on our dollars? If the majority of americans want to do something, you can bet that somebody's making money off of it. That is what america is all about.
FYI: the media isn't left or right. The media is centrist. Appealing to the majority means more money for advertisers. Anyone who complains about how the majority of media is biased against them is just looking for something to pewl about.
