As if I needed any more evidence, apparently my fellow Americans really are totally retarded. I think what chafes the most is not the suggestion that Ronald Fucking Reagan is a greater man than Martin Luther King (although that's certainly awful), but that Oprah Winfrey has offered this country more than Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, the Wright Brothers, or Alexander Hamilton. Jesus Christ.

(Yeah, I see him there at number 6. Not going to say anything, though. Just... back... away... toward... the plane...)
Reading on down, I learn about our neighbors to the north, who unlike us are not fundy nutcases who can't see any merit in a separation of church and state.
I hear Vancouver is nice...

Vancouver is a pretty rocking town, I'm fond of it. Nice weather, nice people, good food. Then again, Toronto's nifty....

"or Alexander Hamilton." Is that a jab at me? ;)

It's not a jab! I was including him because I know he's your favorite President.

Maybe they mean something different by the word "American".

American (n): 1. Proper name recognized by an idiot when filling out multiple choice survey. 2. An idiot who fills out multiple choice surveys.
