Vincent Bugliosi

I just finished reading this book and I can say I liked it very much. Not just because of the way Vincent Bugliosi thinks about the horrible Murderer Georg W. Bush but also because of the facts he describes about the USA:

Page 323:
"I know it has been inculcated in us that America is the greatest nation in the world. One of the cliches that Americans unconsciously embrace is that Americans are free, that we have freedom in America. We utter it with our thinking. But when you stop and think about it for a moment, the cliche lacks merit, not because it is nature, but because of what it implies-that the people of other nations are not free. After all, if we are just one of the hundred nations that are free, what is there to brag about or even mention?...
...There are some nations in the world where the people are not free, but aren't they in the decided minority?"
