thanks for the kind words, Powell. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I did get pretty upset last night, and I only deleted my last post because I thought it sounded too much like a personal attack, and I told Phil (the moderator, not the one I've been arguing with) that I would stop the personal attacks.

I may be a hothead when it comes to what I believe to be anti-Americanism by Americans, but thats just because I've put up with so many people trashing this, the greatest Country in History, that I can't hold it in all the time.

Yes, I did resort to name-calling. Yes I did say that I wished harm upon another for his anti-American comments. Yes, I should have just shut up.

I'm sorry to anyone on here that I consider a friend, if I contributed in lowering the standards of this forum.

I will try very hard from now on not to respond to anyone in this manner again.
(I will try!)
