[QUOTE="Rajder, post: 1308054, member: 11636"] I don't see the big deal. The US government committed illegal and unethical testing on Guatamalan citizens that have life long effects. Now the US government is apologizing for those actions. I didn't commit those actions but I'm not actually apologizing to Guatamala, the US government is. I call this doing the right thing. When I make a mistake I own up to my mistake and admit my wrongdoings. Why would anyone be mad about the US government doing the right thing? Also, why would the Left want to hurt the US? Somebody would have to be retarded to actually think this would ever hurt the US. There is so much animosity on this board towards a group of people who think differently than us it is truly astounding. I've never seen such a high concentration of hatred as I've seen on this board in my life. I have friends that are very liberal and we pretty much don't agree on how things should be run but they still love this country and we just agree to disagree. It's the way this country is supposed to be ran, it's called compromising. If we let just the right wingers run this country it would be just a screwed up as if the left wingers ran this country. I don't get why you guys think only right wingers love this country and if you're a "liberal" then you must hate this country. Right wingers don't have a monopoly on patriotism or American pride. I guess I just get tired of everything turning into a political debate. :rant::soapbox: [/QUOTE]
