    So maybe this movie is partly right. Maybe Obama is somewhat anti-colonialist. Is it such a terrible thing that Obama sees other countries as being equal to us? Is it such a terrible thing that he doesn't share the same condescending arrogance of superiority as many past presidents have? Even if he does have some anti-colonialist views I sincerely doubt that his goal is to turn the US into a third world country.

    Here's a mind blower for you. Obama not being incredibly ethnocentric doesn't upset me that much.

    No nation in the history of the world has become as prosperous and as free as ours. Is that not something to be proud of?

    Can you not be proud without forcing the world to do and see things your way? Or are you so proud you can't see that's a detriment?

    How are we "forcing the world to do and see things [our] way"?

    I'm not even answering that. If you don't see how America is forcing everything from its politics to its pop culture on the world, I don't even know how to talk to you. There's no reason to call yourself above others. Period.


    For once just take the point instead of arguing it beyond recognition.

    Of course we can be proud. I am proud of many things that this country represents. I am not proud of our arrogance and our we are the best and you suck attitude.

    [QUOTE=shrewsbury;11986074and yes I think his statement was wrong, I don't believe in the whole conspiracy thing, monetary overlords, or the secret societies that "really" run everything.[/QUOTE]

    I didn't say it was a secret society. It's anything but secret. People are worrying about this country becoming socialist when they should be worried about it becoming an aristocratic oligarchy.

    It's everywhere man. Our policies, our arrogance towards other countries and governments, our unwillingness to bend or compromise, or the cheers when just about every politician gloats about this being the best country in the world. USA USA USA USA USA.

    You can't seriously be asking this. Are you contending that America doesn't have that attitude, or are you just being difficult?

    I will say, I am a little envious of the chant. Ca-Na-Da just doesn't ring the same.
