I'm quite surprised

I have to say, Billy does a very nice job in presenting the American heartland. I'm an American and our country over the last 12 years has been extremely divided. You put on the news and it's anger, it's smugness, political venom. You see people referring to those who are from a different part of the country in such derogatory terms. It's hard to get away from it despite how much I despise hearing it.

Connolly's view is very refreshing. It's the outside perspective from someone who isn't trying to find faults and mock while at the same time not trying to blow smoke up our asses. He knows more of what it means to be American than many Americans do. Perhaps that's the way it always was, though. Those who can see the difference and see what was and what is. He sees the good people in us. Why can't we see it in ourselves. When Billy talks... he say's... this is why I love Americans. It's not this is why I love this kind of American or an American in this tax bracket or of this ethnic group.... It's just Americans.

All I have to say is thanks Billy.
