When I was in Korea, those old enough to remember the war and the 10 years or so after (my age group) were dumbfounded by their idiot countrymen who apparently thought everything would've been hunky dory if they had just allowed the Norkies to roll over them.

Sort of like I'm dumbfounded at fellow American jag-offs who voted for Obama the second time around. Do they really think the wagon pullers are going to just continue pulling more and more wagon riders?

Sort of like I'm dumbfounded at fellow American jag-offs who voted for Obama the second time around. Do they really think the wagon pullers are going to just continue pulling more and more wagon riders? I personally believe it's a matter of culture. People feel like they can relate less to the Romneys and professed GOP culture as opposed to Obama and the Dems. Of course, the media has definitely played a part in this.

I am in Korea every 12-14 months, sometimes more frequently. And, I have a fair number of Korean friends and associates in NY and LA.

My friends and associates range in age from mid-twenties to seventies. There are generational differences in attitude, of course, but they are almost all very thankful and pro-US. I like the country and the people although some aspects of the culture are pretty effed up from my perspective (especially business practice).
