If it was worth all the bloodshed and tears. He

Le racisme serait donc un sentiment de supériorité d'une race sur une autre ! … de supériorité d'une "quoi" sur une "quoi" ? Le mot "racisme" ne définit donc rien qui puisse être censé.

Bush is anathema to a country more comfortable with shades of gray than the black and white lenses with which the United States views the world.
