Seriously misinformed? Do you *want* me to start talking about the perils of US AID? The government agency that was collapsed by the US government for not being efficient, and in fact, destroying the nations it was meant to help? No. The reason why you get yelled at for interfering is because you're not peacekeepers... you're peacemakers. There is a large difference. I'm all for a little elbow grease to get things done, but the history of US campaigns in the last 30 years has been anything but glorious (Vietnam, Gulf, Somalia, Bosnia, etc). I *am*, however, over generalizing. It's because I don't want to get into a technical political argument, while trying to state my point of view.
One day, Cerb, I am going to send you a tape of the show "Talking with Americans"... Then you will see who is misinformed, and who knows more about their neighbours to the south then they do about their own nation.
