I'm still trying to figure what your problem with Windows Me is. Can you
refresh my memory and post it again?

Thanks so much,

You may wish that those like myself that dare to tell it like it is,
instead of like what you and others in other countries wish it were like
would stfu; but I can only call it like I see it and the truth is that if
the USA had never come into being, then the world would be in a much much
worse condition and there is not doubt in any reasonable thinking person
about that FACT!
I can understand those living in other countries wishing it were not
so and I even applaud their patriotism for their respective countries;
but that does not change the fact that the USA is the most powerful
country on earth and because of that fact alone the rest of the world
should be grateful that the USA believes in other countries having
freedom of self direction. Well that is unless a country infringes on
the rights of other countries freedoms.
The USA sees countries much like it sees it's own citizens and will
*allow* them as much freedom as they want until they try and use that
freedom to infringe upon the same freedoms enjoyed by others.
The other countries of the world should thank God that the USA is NOT
like Germany or Japan were back in WW2; because the USA could have easily
if they had wanted to, taken over the entire world back at the close of
WW2; but the USA believes in freedom for ALL too much to do something
like that.
Lets just look at it this way, lets say that over night the USA got
wiped off the face of the globe. How long do you think it would be
before Russia would be trying to run the world. What about China? if the
USA was not around to buffet them do you really think they would not go
for world conquest? If the USA disappeared over night, North Korea would
take over all of Korea the next day and then set their sights on Japan,
well unless China annexed them first. If the USA were gone, the entire
world may even evaporate into radioactive mist as the other countries
jockey to take over the globe.
The USA is NOT perfect; but compared to others we are closer then
most. I don't take the news at face value, you must remember I was in
Vietnam and I saw first hand how we would be doing one thing and the
public was told something else; but I also know that sometimes it *is*
necessary to keep the public in general and the press in particular in
the dark to keep solders safe.

all the Americans get for offering the hand of friendship to countries is
that they will take the money and things and help we offer while they are
in need and just as soon as they have sucked the resources we offered and

Did you watch the news today about how your police state is spying on its

hear of the McCarthy Era? Read the book entitled 1984?

Other then it being rushed to market; because M$ needed more cash flow
during it's court trouble both in the USA and abroad, and when most tech's
coined the saying "Friends don't let friends use WinME". WinME also being
one small step from no longer being supported as what the rest of the Win9x
line isn't. It being buggy and full of more holes then XP it lack of
implementation of security maybe because it is nothing more then a hold out
for the Win9x line for those that resist change. It was M$ way of milking
money out of it's users just prior to releasing WinXP.
I said why I jumped in here, and it was because the USA was getting
trash talked in several different threads so I decided why not just make a
thread to deal with the trash talking about the USA in a single thread and
give all those that want to say she ite about the greatest country on the
planet a *single* thread to debate it. I should have known however that
when my points could *not* and were not proven inaccurate that some here
would resort to name calling; because their limited cranial capacity
prevented their debating the subject rationally so they try and prove how
tiny and closed their minds are by bandying about school yard taunts and
supposed put downs. None of which however change the fact that I put forth
that *if* the USA were not around the world would be much, much worse off,
and every petty want to be dictator would jump up and kill, rob and mame
more people then all the world wars put together.

So take a hike.....you don't use WinME, ergo you have no business being
here. Don't let the door hit you, etc.

None of which however change the fact that I put forth that *if* the USA
were not around the world would be much, much worse off, and every

BS.....if the USA would quit starting unjustified wars, there would be far
less problems in the world. And if a lot of Americans would stop bleating
that the US is the greatest country in the world, then maybe you would have
some friends. We do get tired of hearing that cr*p, you know.

If you watched informative things on the telly rather than cartoons, you
might learn something. Bill Maher was hilarious on Larry King (CNN) last
night.....he even said exactly what I said about the bragging.....that it is
usually done by those that have never set foot outside of the US. So how
would you know what the rest of the world was like?? Chillicothe is not
exactly a *thriving metropolis*...lol.

obligatory 'tis the season' post

Although troll baiting and troll bashing is legal in all 50 US states, the
District of Colombia, most Canadian provinces, and all of the European
Union, it is my personal experience that it never leads to anything good or
productive.

I have seen many a promising young life utterly and totally destroyed when a
fun evening of baiting or bashing wound up causing a momentary lapse of
concentration - with catastrophic result. With the increased speed of the
Information Superhighway (copyright 2000 by Al Gore, if you believe him G)
due to broadband penetration, it requires more concentration and better
navigational skills than ever before to remain safe and sound in your
journey.

Even worse is when you have a Momentary Lapse of Reason (copyright 1987 by
Pink Floyd) - at these speeds the result can be catastrophic. Other people,
often innocent bystanders, can get caught up in the ensuing collision and
may be horribly scarred or traumatized. You may never get them to get on
the Information Superhighway again, or it may take the use of mood-altering
agents to get them to relax enough to enjoy the journey.

So please, in the spirit of the holiday, I remind you:

FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS BAIT OR BASH TROLLS.

What part of the USA being the country that is making the world very
dangerous do you not understand? Do you like the fact that NSA can spy
on you without your permission or a court order? Is this what you call
"democracy" and "human rights"? The USA is far from perfect, other than
being a perfect menace to world peace.

Again, what is your problem with Windows Me or do you even use it.

I said why I jumped in here, and it was because the USA was getting
trash talked in several different threads so I decided why not just make a

Nagasaki, Hiroshima, Bagdad, Kabul are some of the places that the USA
has murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians and you're
proud of that? I'm not.
