It's like morAtorium on explaining why exactly America gets
bashed by so many tongues, acting like a foolish boy in the yard?
We've been there, being SU.  Now US is heading the same ol' road.

Shawn, let's make an agreement: countries are doing politics, 
but then we people have way too much work to amend for this 
ugly fact of life.  I don't support every braindamaged political
decision performed by e.g. Ukraine or Russia, but hey I've sent
some three -Wl,--as-needed build fixes upstream yesterday.

Let's do what *we* can do better.

If you country behaves like throwing bombs wherever it considers
they're desperately needed, all with smiles, *and* you recognise 
it as *your* country -- sorry man, take that as it happens.

Exactly.  Should I tell how sick I am, having our latest and
greatest yesterday's elections in their counting stage?

Politics are that screwing. (try to avoid such discussions myself
wherever met but possible to)
