1. Oh, so what?

Leave me alone. I'm a stupid American.

I've tivoed the last 27 eisodes of Desperate Housewives and The Apprentice and that's more important than this war. What do I care? No one I know is in it. Let them eat cake. Tough cookies - they joined up didn't they?

I'm a stupid American.
