I understand that. My point is that when you say "you're insulting my country," what you mean to say is "you're insulting the American Majority that, at the time, elected and re-elected Bush." Saying that that is an insult to "our country" is a bit misleading because, being a part of this country, there are still a lot of Americans that happen to agree with the similarities. I know it's simply a matter of technicality, but I just don't agree with your choice of words. That's all. I know what you mean though.

[/b] I see what you're saying, but I stand by my point that Imran is insulting the United States period when he says that it is a country where the majority of voters voted to keep a Hitler in office after he did his supposed Hitler stuff. That is why when people constantly go off and throw around the words "America" and "United States" and say the worst things imaginable regarding those terms, it is not enough for them to then say, "Oh, uh, but I, I wasn't talking about the people." We run the government, so the people are being talked about when those words are used. But it is true that nobody in office was put there by every single person.
