...I don't get how you can say that and then speak down about an entire nation for trying to know everything.
I don't want to get too off subject here, but in response to TJ, I generalize, not a nation, but the loudmouths in it. The people in the nation that are always crying about not knowing the inner workings and decision makings of government and big business. As if the daily decisions and who's talking to who, where did that $50 dollars get spent, how much money did they get last quarter, etc, were their business. The moment you start to make a dollar or get elected, it becomes the job of the media to perform a lifelong body cavity search. BUT, as for people that are demanding to know what goes on behind closed doors, tell them that some organization might have listened to them talk to their girlfriend on the phone last night, and heads will roll.
Frankly, I am just tired of it. The idea that the American people have an automatic "need to know" simply because they think they do. I know this well, because I am American. I have been since the day I was born, and I'm proude to be one. Just not the kind that think they are entitled to every piece of knowledge out there.
And that is what I see here often. There is a reason doctors shut the blinds and doors to a room when a code is called. Knowing that people are watching your every move has it's detriments. Being pestered about every decision is annoying, and it sure as hell doesn't help. Maybe I didn't come off as the nicest guy, but I guess that really isn't my intention. I appreciate TFHM and everything they do. But, badgering them for updates only shows our lack of understanding of how this whole thing works.
I think most posters in this thread get it. Sorry, Jaguar, if I came off as a bit of an ass. I just know how it is when you're trying to do something and it ends up taking longer than expected.
