I mean no offense, but why would you want, or need, to be a US Citizen? As one myself, I'm ashamed of this country and the way we (in general) treat the rest of the world. BTW, I've spent about 10 years in the past living outside the US so I think I have a somewhat outsider's viewpoint.

True enough. I was just butting in. You know how we Americans are. ;)

Our current government, and the corporatocracy that it has become, and the apathy of many Americans and their disregard for what our country does to other countries (and to people at home as well), are things to be very ashamed of. But I think our heritage - the ideals our country was founded on, and those in our country who have made great achievements for humanity, and the freedom and opportunity that our forefathers gave us and we have been privleged to enjoy, are things to be very proud of. In that context I can understand someone being excited and proud to become a US citizen.

True enough, it's just to bad that the former so dramatically outweighs the latter in this day.

Congrats, I'm glad you liked it enough to stay.

And that's what makes this country so great, how honest opinions, and genuine curiosity are welcomed so warmly.

Your comments and opinions might be appropriate in the soapbox, but in response to someone celebrating their choice to become a citizen, they are ignorat and rude. You remain two letters short.

Then explain to me how my comments, by starting with I mean no offense, are rude, and why my opinion should be in the soap-box while yours, calling me rude and ignorant, are worthy of the lounge.
