"Whatever people say about America, it is still one of the most wonderful countries in the world, despite the politics, religion and everything else that goes on."

Can you guess who said this quote? Give yourself a pat on the back if you said Peter Mayhew. You don't know who he is? He's the man who plays Chewbacca in the Star Wars movies.

Peter is about to become a U.S. citizen. And good for him for doing it. He recognizes that we really do live in the greatest country in the world. Is it perfect? No. Ted Kennedy is still a Senator, and not an inmate serving time for homicide. And John Kerry is still not in jail for Treason. Hell, Hillary isn't in jail for fraud (remember the Rose Law Firm billing records?).

But what the hell. This is still a great country.
