8. Two nations divided by one language

Funny how the "English" language differs so much now between our two countries. What your heroic war leader (irony OK?) calls "liberating the oppressed" we describe as "slaughtering innocent civilians in their homes".
Tell you what though, someone who showed "courage, sacrifice, and selfless dedication" might make a halfway decent President, but does it take "courage, sacrifice, and selfless dedication" to serve in the National Guard during a war, and then not turn up for that anyway?
