Wow... looks like I struck a nerve, Herr Kuettner. But thanks... your
little hissy fit pretty much proves my point. Wipe the spittle from the
corners of your mouth and relax a bit.

While you are relaxing, you might use your computer to look up some
things. CRB. American Relief Administration. Lend-lease. Marshall Plan.
UNRRA. European Recovery Program. Truman Doctrine. Berlin Airlift.
NATO. Foreign Assistance Act. Research the funding for the UN, League of
Nations and UNICEF. It is all called "history" and without US Foreign
Aid, Europe would still be the pile of smoking rubble that it resembled
after WWI and WWII

Amazing how little you know but don't let that stop you from posting. I
am a Liberal whose political beliefs are diametrically opposite those of
Bush. But heck, it is easier to make broad generalizations about
"USAns" than it to deal in facts.

In another post, you wrote "And YES, spelling matters." But in this
post, you wrote "People like George gibe your country a bad name."
Gibe? Does spelling really count? Apparently, sentence structure
doesn't count for much, either. Diagram this sentence: "Be they called
Bush or Leppla or whatever."

By the way, the subject of this thread is "Quick BEEF Stroganoff", not
"Classic Boeuf Stroganoff". Your snotty (and snooty) protestations are
meaningless.
