Governments, administrations, legislatures, political leaders and their decisions do not represent a country and its citizens as a whole.
At the individual level, being American is a unique feeling and in some ways, a privilege. I guess citizens of other nations feel something similar but, my point is that we are talking about accomplishments at the level of individuals and in Tesla's case, a private business entity that's flourishing and innovating in the environment that the US provides.

"strooong koolaid" = being patriotic to this great nation? uh, ok. I can't believe a guardian.com article was quoted as reference for the "statistically speaking" comment.
Anyway, congrats on your greencard. I wish you the best success and hope you and your family experience the American Dream.

What a surprise, this Douche bag lawyer is a Republican. Look at at his other blog :

"Unfortunately for Jason Thompson, the Republicans did not capitalize on their opportunity to send President Obama back to Kenya. They did succeed however, in sending Paul Ryan back to Congress and TomMY Senator back to retirement..

I play a nice person on twitter.
While I don't like Vince Megna and his need to publicize himself (what is it with people needing to be on camera??) - if you watch the video, you'll see he did not say what you have posted, he's complaining about someone else saying it. You got it backwards.

I don't like (extreme) republicans as much as the next guy, but I don't see any reason to bring nasty politics into this. I'm guessing these last few posts will end up in snippiness soon enough.

And quickly, before the moderators move this into "politics" quarantaine...
I too have had a couple of very negative reactions from drivers of large pickups. Including getting shown "the finger", being cut off, tail-gated with high beams on... and all this in hyper-polite Portland... strange.
Clinging to guns and religion is simply a mechanism by which individuals try and regain a sense of control when they otherwise have none, and religion allows them to absolve themselves of individual responsibility over their sorry plight in life.

Profile much? You're showing your bias just by this response. Not cool. And way too judgmental. Which is, of course, puts you right in the mix with everyone else.
Ironic, isn't it.
Is that why your pitiful government spent 5bn of taxpayers money supporting Kiev riots?

I'm not sure what that has to do with the countries I mentioned who feel threatened by Russia.
We spent $5 billion and we didn't even get a cool t-shirt?
Most Americans would probably be challenged to find Kiev on a map, or even know that Kiev is in Ukraine. We pretty much don't give a damn. However, taking over another country at gunpoint on a permanent basis doesn't sit well with us or most of the rest of the world.
