The fact that we can militarily or economically cripple any nation is a pretty good indication that we are the greatest. So a schoolyard bully is the greatest student? Fancy that.

masterblaster72 0 #29 March 27, 2006 QuoteWhy do we have to be the greatest nation? We dont have to be.. We just are. [B] IN MY OWN MIND[/B], theres no disputing that. Fixed. Sounds like you know quite a bit about the world if you consider the US to be indisputably the "greatest nation". What other myriad countries have you been to/studied so thoroughly that helped you arrive at such a conclusion? Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Until military spending runs the country into the ground. Sound familiar? Vale Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rasmack 0 #31 March 27, 2006 QuoteThe US is the greatest country in terms of resources, power etc.... We are also free to do what we want... That makes it the best deal in town. That's an interesting statement coming from a country where Howard Stern cannot say what he wants to on the radio, where a computer game containing graphic violence is suddenly condemned for showing (gasp) sex. To me it looks like you are free to behave in a politically acceptable way... and that's it. I do not dispute that the US is economically speaking a lot freer than many other countries, but I don't think that is what you were talking about.HF #682, Team Dirty Sanchez #227 “I simply hate, detest, loathe, despise, and abhor redundancy.” - Not quite Oscar Wilde...
