Heh. While they may be pretty bad (jury still out on the latter), Bush (The W version, not his old man) was by far the worst President. A complete assclown and fuckup.

Gay porn? We're centuries behind on that one with other countries.

The hadron collider (LHC) is in Europe, though.

I'd like to say that this country is as close to a separation of church and state than any other country in the world. I don't know if European countries beat us in that regard, though, since our politicians are very openly christian and we had our big arguments like intelligent design and stuff.
