I'm sure we're still on top even considering our crippling deficit, receding economy, falling employment rate, incompetent leaders, crumbling social system, and less than stellar global and national approval ratings... right?

Rest of the World here - yeah that shit still applies regardless of what country you're in.

Bush has higher approval ratings than most first world country leaders right now, including England, France and Japan. Also, you're an idiot, our economy isn't in a recession, look up recession in a dictionary and look at how our economy is still growing, albeit at a tiny rate.
The deficit is anything but crippling. Reagan had a much larger one when he was in office and we rebounded with a decade. Also the current deficit has fluctuated greatly, between 450 billion and 120 billion, already showing tremendous rebound. It's not a problem. Unemployment rate is less than 6%, a percentage that is still stellar compared to other first world countries. And anything less than 6% isn't substantial as you will always have people who refuse to work or merely those in job transitions, which equals about 3 to 6% at any given time. As far as 'crumbling social system', saying it doesn't make it true. So first define what you mean by social system and then give proof that it is failing compared to other first world countries. Then come back and apologize to me.

And thus we compare your "statistics" to everyman knowledge. Next, you'll say Agent Orange is harmless.

hahaha, everyman knowledge? Wow yeah, cuz research always leads to lies! You fucking idiot. You really will just take everything at face value? You're whats wrong with the world, people believing what they are told by those with agendas with no initiative to form their own opinions. Fine, do what you want but don't pretend to be informed, you'll just embarrass yourself.

Don't be too hard on them. It's not their fault they believe everything the TV tells them. That's how their parents educated them you know.

Anyone want to explain just how TV 'brainwashes' people?

People know the difference between reality and fiction and they won't instantly believe something they otherwise wouldn't just because a TV said it.

well the problem is a lot of people are lazy and don't actually think.

Remember planet of the apes?

"Never trust anyone over 30?" It's now become a degree of "Never trust anyone who wants you to trust them. But you can totally trust the people simply telling you who NOT to trust" for some reason.

People won't trust easily, they won't *believe* easily, but they sure as hell doubt easily.

not being a dick, but have you been to Iraq?

If so go into more detail about it there plz

anonymous here, and i served in Iraq. I really blows over there but only by comparison to what I was raised in. On your average quiet day however, you see people going about there business and you see most people happy with what little they have. They're happy to drink dirty water i wouldn't drink if you paid me. It's really made me see just how petty americans really can be, as well as anyone in a first world country.

try this, shower with no hot water, no cell phone, no internet, no driving unless longer than 2 miles away in distance, and you can only eat simple breads and meats, no condiments, not salt...

most of you couldn't even do it for a week.

Amerifags and Eurofags alike = FAIL for being Fat lazy ungratefull food mongers

Iraqis from all groups agree on one thing: the US is to blame for the sectarian violence. The US threw Iraq into civil war and there have been 1.1 million deaths so far on all sides. How many more will it take to make the kind of state the US wants? The surge has reduced the rate of killing by driving apart the different groups into their own neighbourhoods and the distrust between them is greater than ever.. even the one good thing about Sadaam's leadership, the secular state, has disappeared. It's all bad, no good.

England created the states of the middle east including Israel. Thus England is responsible for the problems there, but for some reason we are the only ones who care enough to even try and do something about it. And the rest of Europe, we know what you did in Africa, I'm looking at you France. Europe fucked the world up, then got their asses handed to them for about 30 years straight and now they think they can tell everyone else how to act? Nigga please!

>>England created the states of the middle east including Israel.
you realize that that area has been fighting against itself over land for hundreds if not thousands of years, even before England touched it right?

>>but for some reason we are the only ones who care enough to even try and do something about it.
define care, please. We went over there originally under false pretenses created by Cheney and Rumsfeld, specifically orchestrated with false evidence and outright lies. We're currently still "helping" there on the count that we still have to secure "interests" (political and physical) and not loose face for fucking up so bad in the long run.

>>Europe fucked the world up.
Sure, and Im guessing you believe Europe is a country too. I wont deny that England or for the matter of fact, the rest of Europe has done horrible things at any point in history, but come on, I think as your christian god says it most "Those who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones" (and I'm paraphrasing). America has quiet its own bit of "fucking up" it has done globally as well for its own means, just not so many since we've only existed for such a short amount of time.

Look, as an american, I think our biggest problems (besides rising obesity rates, dependency on fossil fuels, global & political unawareness, etc) is education and having an appreciation for an open mind rather than sticking to one damn side of an argument. Without understanding both sides of a problem, nothing ever gets done, or the problem gets worse. Its heavily evident just in this thread alone that this is true. We fail to see that we're not always correct, or that our way isn't the only way. Options exist for that reason, and we fail to acknowledge them on a daily basis.

holy shit are you serious?!!? Muslims were killing the 'infidels' before America was even discovered. they have and have always had a religion that commands them to eliminate anyone who disagrees with them and they are willing to die to obey it.

learn some history before your ignorance spreads to the rest of the world and other sheep actually believe the garbage that is coming out of your mouth
