It's really nice to see something as literate and well-written as that posted to Slashdot.
Perhaps it will start a trend :-).
On the American right to lie, I think it's a good point - Americans do think they have a right to lie.
But this isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's through the American arrogance that such a great nation has been built.
You don't make the greatest country on Earth by being nice to everyone.
Also, even though lieing is a positive thing from a success point of view, I think in many respects Americans have a right to lie - as human beings (the most successful animal), we have dominion over the animals, and as the most successful nation, I think America should be allowed a little leeway.
