IamaPatient's claims of anti-Americanism get old, don't they? I've been accused by him of being that way several times, and nothing could be further from the truth. I love this country with all my heart.

He makes that claim, however, because it's easy. It's a fast-draw insult, and on his end, it feels like a great victory (in the fashion of a 3-year-old on a playground). The truth is that if he didn't always pull out his favorite simplistic taunts, he'd actually have to look at and think about what he himself and others are saying. I'm now firmly convinced that he's not capable of doing that.
