A nicely done amalgam! The "US citizens think they can elect the
world ruler"--a sharp attack on the smug, rich Americans who are
hated everywhere in the civilized world in the first paragraph flows
elegantly into "Louis Proyect...think us subjects of the empire" in
the next paragraph. You got me dead to rights. I am the Ugly American
who rubs the stars-and-stripes in Marxmail subscribers'
noses forcing them to not ever mention Cuba here on the pain of
expulsion, if not waterboarding. This deserves an A+ for
below-the-belt polemics but is sadly devoid of politics.
