Patriot-X

Left alone, Americans, for the most part, get along well with one another. When Politics, Religion and other capitalized pronouns become involved, Americans, like anyone, can become foolish, and even dangerous. Here's how the world appears to someone who is not defined by pop-culture, junk-science categories. (Note: I write for adults. Some language may be unsuitable for children.)

What is a True "World Coalition"?

My baby bro is 110% liberal, and because of that he is somewhat reluctantly Democrat. He whines about Bush galloping off to war waving his middle finger at international opinion. He is not a math whiz, I can tell you.

According to his ilk, a "true coalition" is unanimous with no dissent. Well, except for the one you are coalescing against, I suppose. In other words, if EVERY other nation does not agree, then it's a no-go.

Which is unamalgumated fecal byproduct. Three nations said "No" (Russia, France, Germany ... but what about China?) and 30+ others said, Yes" AND sent troops. Hmmmm. Appears to demand a complete consensus to me.

What a fruity-tooty, lucky charms and flute music skipping through the meadow brain hiccough is the idea that everyone will agree on something!

Can't even get a 30+ to single-digit coalition in American politics, seldom even in the same political party, but it is to be expected and demanded from the world at large?

Pass the crack pipe over here, please ... I have to catch up....
