mmmmmm....... I hear you, UT, but I'm still inclined to believe the 'american interest' thingie is still buried deep within the american psyche.... and your 'isolationist' remark only serves to reinforce my viewpoint.
As a nation, you are the probally the most powerful and influential in the world, yet as a people you are probally the most parochial.
It's a dichtomy that most of can't even understand, let alone resolve,
yet we have to live with the conseqences of that personality split.

And I don't hate Americans. Just your foreign policy.
