The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It 
will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment.

What happend is this. These American specimens know only how to brag
and bray and bullshit and expect all to be overawed at their
meaningless maybe, maybenot, etc., marvelling at their own conceited
sense of knowledge and condescension, pitying the lowly creatures of
the rest of the world and trying to teach them how to live like an
American. The moment someone tells them that they are a bit too big
mouthed, and asks them to show their supposedly big wisdom teeth in
that big mouth of theirs, they drop their jaw in wonder that an ant
can challenge an elephant and beat hasty retreat, because they have no
answer to the ant's queries. Rest assured, when the apocalypse comes,
the ant will yet survive, but, the elephant, like the dinosaur, would
be the first onr to go down.

Mind you, she was 44 and an attorney! what did she expect? To be
treated like a fairy? Well, we did treat her like one at personal
level. But, maybe, she was a real blonde, with little grey matter
beneath that blonde head.

I have seen a few of these Americans. They think they are great, with
no challenge to their greatness tolerated. They sing virtues of
individualism, forgetting, as TV wrote, that they carry it too far.
Would it be  noble individualism  if a mother commits adultery in
front of children, or, allows children to worship bacchus in the
precincts of the home? Unfortunately, these or similar examples are
real life events in the great US culture which they want to spread all
over the world, for the benefit of mankind, just to give a helping
hand to God!
