Free speech and open debate are present in this thread. No one here has denied Stoeckl, Herpes, and yourself of anything, including free speech and the opportunity for open debate, so please stop your pathetic whining! You have been driven to blather on this forum by something that isn't even there. Either your imagination has gotten the best of you, or you have such an act to grind with Americans that you are making things up in order to put us down. Either way, we arent stupid. IWe haven't branded Stoeckl and Herpes "American haters" simply because they have questioned American policy. You can continue to act like an idiot by characterizing the things they've said and the way that they said them as simply "questioning American policy", but the joke's on you.
As far a the US alienating countries like Germany and France go, because they have a "differing opinion", let's just say that they've alienated themselves. Their "differing opinions" are what led to the attempt by the UN to prevent the US from hunting down killers who've vowed "death to America". America is now a safer place to be because Bush gave their little and "different" opinions the consideration they deserved. And, take note Kanucklehead, we didn't bomb France and/ or Germany because of their "different opinions", so don't get all worked up thinking that you put forth any ideas that are worthy of debate. You are a rebel without a cause. Don't be ridiculous, we know about, and appreciate, free speech and open debate more than any Canadian, German, or English twit will ever know.
