Milquetoast Nation
George Bush should thank his lucky stars that Americans don't have that lean and Hungary look.
If Bush had been caught on tape saying this —
We lied in the morning, we lied in the evening.
— I still don't think most of us would give a damn. Not in the America we've become.

So, governments are the same all over the world, huh? No surprise there.
You're right that most American's don't give a damn. The rest of the world is paying attention and notices our apathy too. I believe that makes us vulnerable.

It does make us vulnerable, including to the excesses of our own government.

Hungarians have a memory of what life was like under Communist rule. They don't take kindly to such nonsense. But we don't mind here as long as our lives are interrupted..

You're right, Dusty. Hungarians have left behind what I'm afraid we're heading toward.
