Sorry, I have to list some. Such moronity exemplificates the directions by which Americana seems to be leading the united free world of democracy-upholding nations.

Where words and ideas take flight from the wings of all sense and logical constraintment. Although, perhaps not for foreign languages like Mexican or Hispanic or Grecian.
