Are Americans too trusting or paranoid?

I think you are. George Bush's war on Iraq had in reality nothing to do with WMD or Al-Queda but he fooled most of you by talking the tough talk. Sadam Hussein was a dictator but he had neither WMD or links with Bin Laden's crowd and sadly the latter are now establishing themselves in the Iraq vacuum. As for not wanting universal healthcare, that beats me. That awful New York mayor told utter lies about the British NHS and independent auditors can confirm that. Be more sceptical of mouthpiece politicians but a lot of USA people do not vote anyway so maybe they already are.
