I don't think I've ever asked you how you felt about America, but I've been accused of labelling other people "anti-American" so I can relate to your viewpoint on that :)<BR/><BR/>I think it's naive, though, in this world where everybody either blames America (for everything) or they don't, to say that ones opinion of America has no bearing on their politics! That seems to be the root of pretty much ALL global politics these days! ANd I, for one, don't like it. I really wish it were true that one's opinion of America was no more or less important than their opinion of any other nation. But, it's not. In my opinion. But that's not really an opinion! Virtually every (political) blog I visit boils down to wheteher people like what America is doing, or don't like it. I think to suggest otherwise is to ignore the obvious.<BR/><BR/>I have noticed though, that you try to steer away from such conversations on your blog. That makes your blog a rarity, and it's one of the reasons I like your blog so much.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I agree completely with your views on the importance of blogging. I'm not even a blogger, but being a regular reader of some blogs has dramatically changed my opinions on a few very important issues. I think reading blogs has become more important to me than the news. It really changes things when you feel like you know somebody, and see how events are effecting them, and how they react, rather than just seeing a 30 second blurb on television!programmer craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566950406349754166noreply@blogger.com
