How about this. I've stated it to other foreigners in the past.

How about worrying about your own country, seeing as you have your own country and government to worry about. Don't like Bush? Fine, I don't either. But maybe you should elect some people that will protect your interests of your country and stop trying to line their own pockets.

Otherwise, you cant' vote in the US, you don't really raise awareness, and above all, your information is only received by biased news agencies that report what they deem newsworthy, sensationalistic, or backing their previous points and opinions.

And besides, your country has a shady past. Don't gloss over it with 50+ year old justifications either. Bad past for Switzerland as well. Go figure.
