Quote:
 
American exceptionalism is the belief that the United States is different from other countries in that it has a specific world mission to spread liberty and democracy.
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

I have no idea what it's even supposed to mean. Exceptional in that we play sports no one else plays? Yep, I suppose that's true.
I cite irreconcilable differences.

AL you may have discovered a kernal of truth amidst the bovine scatology encapsulating the exceptionalist mythology.

I'll pass along your sentiments to non American Alexis Tocqueville next time I see him. You can pass along my sentiments to non American Josef Stalin next time you see him. :whome:
The dogma lives loudly within me.

I very much doubt that either Joe Stalin or that Froggy bloke I'm too lazy to spell ever used the term 'bollocks', which is a word normally restricted to members of more developed nations than these.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?
