In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America, he said:
"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... how many want out. Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.
One died for your soul, the other for your freedom."

That's touching. Even IF apparently "half the world hates us", of which we have to solid evidence, no other country gives as much charities.

People from other Country's only want to be in America because they think we are all rich, and if they come here they can become rich, too. The Jesus part only counts if you are a Christian. I do not dispute that the American G.I. has died in many wars for many people. I don't think it was that impressive a quote from Blair.

Sound like "Love is in the air"
Try and ask him "When will I see you again"
