Reflecting on the USA

I like Americans. There. I've said it.
Well what do you expect?... I am not going to risk getting on anybody's craw on my second post, am I?
No, friends. That's for next week..
 
But they have their problems and none seem more insurmountable than this.
They cannot pronounce the word 'mirror'.
It's all going well until panic seems to set in half way through.
Sure, the start's swellegant.
Then the clutching terror.
Then the war and shocking destruction of the middle double R.
Then the bail out. Not comprised of several trillion dollars but a hiatus where the natural end of the word would normally kick in, Instead the second syllable is substituted with an All-American 'Yaa'.
Next time you look in a mere mirror, you might reflect on that.
