Not much, except to mature sufficiently to differentiate between

Have you ever seen the episode of South Park where they go to Canada?
and
there's a guy there called Scott? Rowland reminds me of him. "That's
Scott. He's a dick."


Rational dicks everywhere want to know how you irrational dicks are
going
to pay for the ****ing mess you've created :


http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/

More oil wars, I suppose.


"I" didn't create anything, I didn't vote for him and neither did
millions
of other American's, why don't you direct your angst at Bush and ask him
that rather then generalizing?


it's a concept that probably originated in a time when monarchs were
referred to as their nations in diplomatic discourse. the british monarch
would be called "england", the french monarch would be "france", and so
on.
in this sense, bush is "the united states". regardless of who did or
didn't
vote for him, he currently represents the american national will outside
your borders for the simple reason that he's empowered to do so and no one
else is.


what a lot of americans don't seem to get is that as far as anyone living
outside the country is concerned, bush IS america. he's not the individual
americans we know... for example, i know *you didn't personally create
what
his administration has created... but the individual exceptions are going
to
have to stand up and be counted by the world, one american at a time, or
be
taken to aquiesce to what your twice-elected leader has done.


It's so frustrating really... The American's


The American's what? That makes no sense as you have used a possessive
apostrophe. Oh, wait, you meant 'Americans', didn't you? Plurals don't
require apostrophes, you ignorant and illiterate bint.

For your information: while the USA has on two occasions helped Britain
defeat an enemy in Europe, the USA has never `supervised' Europe in any
way shape or form.


Unless one wishes to define the isolated U.S. participation in those
wars as a form of supervision, that is largely correct. Actually,
though, I remember reading claims that it was the U.S. that pushed
European countries into creating the EC.

Canada is in
consequence a civilised, grown-up nation now; while the USA is quite the
opposite and not somewhere any sane person would want to live at all.


Canada is indeed a nice, pleasant country to live in. It would be
happier if the French-English dichotomy didn't make it fractious like
Belgium, but one can't have everything. The United States doesn't have
health care that is as good, but it has lower prices and more jobs.

I've explained, the biggest war-monger and supporter of terrorism in the
world today is the USA - the USA has caused more wars and terrrorism
than any other nation going since the end of the Second World War.
Irish terrorism wouldn't have existed without US funding, for example.
Your nation was funding terrorist attacks against *ME* - I lived in
London during the 1960s-1980s. US sponsored international terrorism has
been one of the scourges of the world since 1945 - the USA has funded
many, many radical left-wing terror groups such as the Provos in Ireland
(revolutionary socialists) and the Viet Cong in SE Asia (full-on
communists).


Not a penny of U.S. taxpayer's money was given to the IRA. It's true
that there are people of Irish descent living in the U.S., and they
may have had a false, romanticised notion of what the IRA terrorists
were up to, but you should really be blaming that on your own
ancestors.

The original US plan for dealing with Europe after WWII was to drive
Germany back to be a subsistence agricultural nation without any
industry. That's hardly a mature response to the issue of re-building
Europe and preventing future wars.


Ah, yes, the Morgenthau plan. I do think it's rather understandable
that there would be some people who would have come to the conclusion
that Germans, if they were capable of supporting Hitler, must be an
eternally cursed people lacking some fundamental element of human
decency - and who must therefore *never* be allowed to get their hands
on the ability to fight a war again.

Someone with a name like Morgenthau might well be one of those people
who is more likely to be one of those people. I find it hard to blame
someone for holding a grudge about the Holocaust.

One decent Yank thought this was
appalling - and he persuaded Marshall to lend his name ta a scheme to
re-build Europe. Not that Britain got any help that way.


Germany got off easily because of the Cold War - but even before that
changed matters, the Morgenthau plan was indeed dropped.

The EU is that secure because the Cold War - a confrontation between the
USSR and USA caused by US paranoia - has ended, and we got to take down
the Iron Curtain which would never have existed if the USA hadn't been
so threatening to the USSR. So now the malign influence of the USA has
been lifted from Europe, we're all sorted.


The Cold War was caused because Stalin was the same sort of brutal
hideous monster as Hitler. As the people of Estonia, Latvia,
Lithuania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and several other countries will
tell you quite readily.

Had the U.S. not been around to stand up to the USSR, West Germany,
France, and Britain would all have suffered the same fate as Eastern
Europe.

That you fail to realize this, that you fail to realize that you owe
the same kind of gratitude to the U.S. taxpayer in succeeding decades,
to the soldiers who fell in Korea and Vietnam, as you do to those who
fought Hitler in World War II, betrays a profound ignorance on your
own part.

No, YOU'RE mentally ill. Good luck with that.


Interesting - someone else has a mental health problem unrelated to
yours[1], and you use that as evidence that you do not suffer from
psychosis?

You really should see your doctor soon for your own safety. There are
many drugs available that can help you - or at least keep you under
control and so out of hospital or prison. Please do so, for your own
good.

I think maybe your problems are caused by your cognitive distortions,
and wouldn't be helped with medication. Here are a few I've noticed you
have:

Overgeneralization.
Mental Filter.
Jumping to Conclusions.
Magnifications.
Labeling and Mislabeling.

Print out some of your recent posts and bring them to a CBT therapist,
and see what they have to say. Maybe you can get some help.
